The Williams Mug Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #454 Two-band Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Schick 66 G-4 Injector razor and the Personna Injector Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Lustray Spice After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Wednesday morning:

Quick shower
Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Canadian Tech/Wilkinson Sword day 14
Stirling Electric Sheep SS
Proraso Blue ASB
Stirling Island Man AS Splash

What can I say - this Electric Sheep is so awesome. The scent to me is beautiful, its mutton tallow formula promotes such fantastic lather that’s so slick, and it has a very soothing sensation both during and after a shave. The Proraso Blue balm leaves my skin feeling so moisturized and comfortable while the Island Man aftershave smells so gorgeous - if that’s what Creed Virgin Island Water smells like then it’s wowwwwww. What a super super three pass BBS shave this was - the Wilkinson Sword blade earned its retirement after two weeks of diligent service.

Wishing everyone a great day - see you all tomorrow.

Have a great day!​

I would decant that Clubman out the window. In fairness, I never tried it, but I fear the clove factor in the thing.

Here's a change I made to tomorrow's shave (sorry, likers).

Prep-Stoylin Liquid Bodywash(Ozark Mtn)...*

*-2012(course the Bodywashes came later after Doc Ezlovan opened his company, but we wouldn't have the bodywash had he not done so). The Stoylin came today, along with the Glacial Iceberg Island. No one informed me it would be here today. Glad tbey're here, though.

you know the old adage..don't knock it...it's ok.it'a an interpretation of what bay rum smells like..i really liked the Ogallala bay rum to be honest,but my wife dislikes it.i had the set and passed it on.

Ogallala's been on my mind, but again, the clove persuasion. Maybe I'll look at it again, or buy another Ogallala.

buy the ogallalaskip the clubman.for me it was a one off,just to have a splash that matched my col conk bay rum soap..neither are a favorite,just something i tried and won't repurchase.
