Thursday's Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Old Spice Original Shave Cream
Tom's B400 Two-band Badger
Bunny V3 Injector
Supply Black Label Blade
CWR
Dickinson's Witch Hazel
Lilac Vegetal

The Old Spice Original Shave Cream lathered well with Tom's B400 Two-band Badger. Two passes and touch ups with the Bunny V3 Injector Razor with the WILD comb and a Supply Black Label Blade Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Dickinson's Witch Hazel and then Lilac Vegetal. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Thanks Gary!

English Leather was one of the first aftershaves and colognes I wore when I arrived in Canada. It’s such a nice fragrance!

Thursday morning:

L’Oréal Men Expert Facial Wash
Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Super Speed/Astra Green day 4
Captain Nemo Explosion de Cedrat SS
Prep ASB
Captain Nemo Kaffir Limon AS Toner
Chabrawichi 555 Cologne (from Egypt)

My second time using this lovely soap from Captain Nemo in Kolkata, India and I think it’s fantastic. Abir is one hell of a soap and aftershave genius - that’s all I can say. This soap has a beautiful lemony scent that’s so refreshing, it’s vegan based like all Abir’s soaps, the lather is so thick, rich, creamy, slick, cushiony, and protective, there’s quite a bit of menthol in it - in fact at first I wasn’t expecting any so this was a nice surprise, and it’s very gentle on my skin. The Prep worked its magic and left my skin feeling so cool, moisturized and soothed. Finally the Kaffir Limon aftershave toner went on with a soothing, cooling feeling - it smells so nice as well. Last but not least the Chabrawichi 555 cologne from Egypt which is so cheap over there but it smells wonderful - it’s a blend of lemon and lavender. It’s been around for many years. Three passes gave me a dynamite BBS shave that was so enjoyable!

Have a great day - be well and stay safe!
