November 25, 2020 Rex Ambassador Gillette 7 O’clock Yellow MR EE #4 with SHD 2 Band Fan LEA Classic Shave Soap & Aftershave Happy Wednesday. I decided to go with another Spanish pairing today, LEA Classic Shave Soap and Aftershave. The MR EE#4 loaded and face lathered the LEA with ease. The sandalwood and citrus scent is fabulous. I really don't get the sensation of the menthol that is supposed to be part of the mix. Three passes and touch ups missed the little guy. I got sloppy and ended up with a couple of nicks. A splash of LEA aftershave and I am off to a client site for the day. I anticipate it will be a half day or so of work. I hope everyone has a great Wednesday.
The Aristocrat is a beauty, Evan. Excuse me when I'll check eBay... I'm sorry to hear about your Bride's tooth, and I hope her dental work proceeds without a hitch. I enjoy reading your daily thankfulness updates. Having a thankful perspective on life is transformational. I'm thankful for this beautiful party mix cookin' gal: Without her supervision and good sense, I'd be eating like this all the time: Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family, Evan. I'm thankful for your friendship and glad that you're part of the 30DC family.
Alabama awesomeness this morning. Smooth shave with the Red Tip and an Astra. The 20mm badger whipped the Imperial into whipped cream this morning. Three passes and I am slick as a catfish belly. Finished the shave off with some Irish Chestnut by Andy Hilfiger. Hope every has a great humpday but it is Friday for me.
Danny, I finished my Big Lots Christmas shopping. I picked up the Royal Stallion for myself and Primitive Man for you.
New razor is inbound to the den. I had been eyeing this handle for a while and was going to go ahead and get it but I noticed for a little more money I could get the handle with a CNC machined head. The head reassemble a R41 Muhle. The Dscosmetics ZO head weighs 38 grams and my R41 weighs 32 grams. I really like the looks of the stainless steel Ladder handle and if the quality is like my titanium handle it will definitely be a keeper. Bottom two pics are of my R41 head for comparison. Take care gentlemen!
Looks good, Danny. You've added quite a few nice razors to your Den recently. Happy Thanksgiving, my Awesome Alabama friend!
Great looking gear for a hump day shave Jim! Nice Williams Wednesday shave Fuzzy! Sorry about the nicks Clint. The Rex and Evan's brush look so cool together! Smooth as a catfish belly....is that like slick as snot on a doorknob? Great red tip shave and setup Danny!
Great looking shave, Fuzzy! I've yet to try a horsehair brush - it seems that Vie Long has the most available variety.
Nice setup Clint! Always thought the LEA just came in a tube. The bowl makes a nice presentation. Sorry about the nicks, otherwise it was a good shave.
That looks great, Danny. Are you buying it from AliExpress? How long does shipping usually take from them?
