I am going to shave a bit later today. I got some menthol soap to try! Theo took over my sink! I threw in the towel! It will feel nicer to shower and shave a bit later. It's gonna be HOT!
SRS # 728 - JustOneJulySoap - Weekdays Rating: 5 / 5 Razor: Genco - Getico 5/8” Brush: Semogue Torga C5 Lather: Blackship Grooming Company La Concorde Aftershave: Aqua Velva Classic Ice Blue Additional Care: Maggards Alum Nivea Sensitive Balm Thayer’s Witch Hazel - Original Another fine shave with this Genco razor. Three passes has left my face smooth and refreshed. The Aqua Velva is a nice clean scent that supports the famous catch phrase, “There’s nothing like an Aqua Velva man.” Tomorrow will be the final shave with this tub of soap as the Edmund Fitzgerald will accept another tub into it’s hull. This will be the second soap binned this year. On pace to meet my goal of three however there is an outside chance for a fourth. Below is Anthony riding his new Trek 820. Hope you all stay cool.

I don't want to discourage him. He drinks from a faucet if I turn it on at a drip. He is a character.
Closed out the Barbasol/Stoylin Lime group today(for now). I used a LOT of the Barbasol. Great job along the cheeks&sideburn areas. Missed a bit on North Porcupine(same location as a few days ago-under the right nostril). One cut, no Knicks, no Polkadots. The cut happened at the north border of Cactus and Porcupine. No other negative issues. The Stoylin Glacial Lime A.S. was most pleasant. Most Excellent.
I jumped into the shower and then shaved. The Proraso Menthol was very nice. It was very nice and cooling to the face. The Star 1912 gave the usual very pleasant shave with lots of feedback. Razor - Star 1912 with GEM SS blade 5th use (still nice and sharp) Soap - Proraso Green Menthol Pre-shave - Proraso Blue Brush - Simpson T3 Trafalgar synthetic After shave - Thayers toner & Geo F. Trumper "Sandalwood" The combo of the pre-shave cream and the soap works well. Cooling to the face. I rinsed the razor with cold water and rinsed face between passes with cool water. 3-pass shave was very pleasant. WTG, ATG, XTG with no cleanup got my face really smooth! Alum bar gave zero feedback. I hope all you guys stay cool today!
