    Prep : Glycerin
    Razor : BRW Bull Mastiff Progress
    Blade : Volshkod (1)
    Brush : Rudy Vey Chubby Silver Tip Badger
    Soap : MWF by rubbing puck on my face like a stick
    AS : Alum + WH + GFT Skinfood

    If anybody's interested, glycerine is a great preshave treatment and I've been using it for a while. It can be had at any pharmacy or the like (I get mine at Walmart) for $4 per bottle and makes a great skin and whisker softener and gives the razor a bit of slipperiness. Just rub 4-5 drops into your wet beard and skin.

    Monday 12 December

    Hot Shower
    Proraso White soap
    Gillette Slim (6), w/ Gillette 7O'Clock Super Platinum Black (D3)
    TSD ISZ Splash, and Proraso White

    This might be the best shave I have ever gotten with the Gillette Slim, it was a three pass DFS++. I got up early just to have the bathroom to myself. I'm packed and heading to Houston for the week.

    Have a great day.

    Houston?:sad029: No offense to the good folks that live down there, but it is not one of my favorite cities. Have fun and take a duck with you, you might need it. :)

    Yup, Houston.
    I go where they send me. Supposed to be in the high 60's and low 70's all week. Can't be all that bad. I'm working indoors (allegedly).

    A nice shave to start off a work week always puts me in a good mood. Wow, so much iciness this morning with the Godrej Menthol Mist, followed by this fantastic balsam which is made in Austria. BTW, the 7 AM blades are very good - you just have to be a little more careful with them. ;) :D

    A Tremendous Menthol Monday

    I gave the face a day off yesterday and came back today for Menthol Monday. Everything just went right. Maybe the Jagger heard I was looking for a more aggressive brother for him, but 3 perfect passes, and also a return to a Gillette Dark Blue (the Feather ran out of steam on shave three).

    Assorted soaks and splashes
    Proraso Pre/Post
    Vulfix 404 Grosvenor Mixed
    Palmolive Menthol Italian
    EJ89
    Gillette 7 o'clock Dark Blue (1)
    Barbers Choice Menthol AS
