  3. I complimented and asked, it was one of her designer fragrances. Might have been "viva la juicy" however it was very pleasant not over powering.

    More dialing in with the Fatip piccolo today. Tried the gentile comb and a new blade . This razor seems to like a different approach angle than any I've used before and could be the reason I got lit up last shave . Could also be from using the open comb. I am not a statistician but I love a good shave .
    I noticed under the jawline and Adams apple where I have a bit harder time getting velvet smooth that today was smoother than usual. I still did 3 passes as during this discovery phase noticed it was cutting the hairs on the N to S stroke where usually it's the E to W stroke. Am I crazy??? Probably.
    In hindsight I could have eliminated 1 pass under jawline if I had went N to S first and skipped S to N.
    If you can navigate that explanation you get extra points today;). Any experienced Piccolo users chime in and compare.
    Finished with the new bottle of L'Oreal Hydra Power AS balm I scored on clearance last night. The scent is Mountain Water and she loves it. :happy036:
    Hope that wasn't too long or boring. Have a great day! 20210210_060914.jpg
  13. Sadly no. The medication is now waking me up instead of the sinus pain. It tells me we better make it to the bathroom NOW.:scared007:
    Take the bad before you get the good I guess. Starting to notice a slight improvement today though in sinuses and ear . Only 9 more days to go of staying close to the bathroom :sad038:
  14. Gorgeous photo, Blair.

  16. Great shave, Patrick.
    I am pretty sure the razor was cutting hairs in both directions. Perhaps the audio feedback of this razor is different?

    Good morning gentlemen from chilly Long Island. My commute may have to deal with the black ice on the roads. As a result, for my shave I choose a scent that reminds me of warmer weather.
    I enjoy the smoky orange scent of the soap and splash. The soap provided a slick platform for the razor to do a wonder job for all three passes. I am smooth and velveteen to quote Jeff, @jgreenpa.
    It is time to head out the door with my little man. He is not so little anymore. Almost as tall as his mother.

    Have a great day gentlemen.

    Hey, I finally remembered to use Williams on Wednesday. I are Smart now. Got a tremendous lather and had an amazing shave. LOVING this vintage stuff. The aftershave has a slight medicinal vetiver like scent but I dig it and it feels good. Hope every one has a great day !!
