    Razor: Merkur HD
    Blade: Gillette Yellow
    Brush: Thater Stout 1
    Pre-Shave: Musgo Real Glyce Lime
    Cream: Italian Palmolive with Menthol
    A/S: Alt Innsbruck

    I rarely use my Merkur HD these days but was reminded today that it does indeed give a good shave. The double dose of menthol felt good on this warm fall day.

    I thought today was a DE day. After a hot shower I set to with the Futur, 1st pass on 2, 2nd on 3.5 and the 3rd pass and some buffing done on 5. A perfect BBS shave albeit with a couple of minor weepers sorted out by the alum.​

    Odds are there will be lots of trouble at work tomorrow, and I'll probably come home too tired to enjoy my shave, so I decided to do my Menthol Monday shave today.

  16. Sunday 9 October

    This was an afternoon shave, but due to things beyond my control I was unable to post earlier.

    Well, I went out this morning and cut the lawn and did some yard work, and then took a long hot shower.
    I was going for a relaxing shave, and man I got it.

    Proraso preshave balm
    Proraso green tea and aloe soap (white tub)
    Gillette New, and Lord Platinum (D4)
    Alcolado Glacial, and Proraso ASB.

    This was a three pass DFS, and just fantastic. I had all the time in the world, and it was fantastic. I just love the proraso white, it works great for me. Besides the razor and blade, this is the set up I used when I gave up on the store blades and goo, and first started to get serious about wet shaving.
