  2. Wednesday morning:

    L’Oreal Men Expert Facial Wash
    Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
    Super Speed/new Minora
    Stirling Electric Sheep SS
    Nivea Cool Kick ASB
    Hega AS Splash
    Bleu de Chanel Deodorant Stick
    Bleu de Chanel Parfum

    Today I wanted to focus on some stuff that I haven’t used in a long time so I decided to pull out the regular version of Electric Sheep and I’m so happy that I did because it really is a delightful soap. The scent to me is so beautiful - a blend of lemon, citronella, and eucalyptus, the mutton tallow formula gives it such wonderful, super slick lather, and it leaves the skin with a healthy tingle and feeling so good. The Nivea Cool Kick balm moisturized and soothed my skin so well while the Hega aftershave from Sweden went on very comfortably and it’s got a very neutral scent. The new Minora helped to ensure a perfect BBS shave!

    Have a great day - be well and safe!

    My apologies for the discrepancy between pic and write up- I didn't end up changing the Astra out of the razor to the GSB as planned. That was a mistake...will rectify for tomorrow.
    Have a great day all!

    When I learned that ATT parts are interchangeable, AND they currently have "ugly stuff" on sale for a steep discount, I just had to accessorize my beloved SB90. The copper CR plate provided a nice smooth shave. And I LOVE the way it looks. And there is absolutely nothing "ugly" about this plate. In fact, pictured is the purportedly "ugly" side, with some very light scratches that do not even appear in the photo. Tomorrow's shave will be posted in the "open comb" thread :)
