Pre: hot shower
Brush: EJ, Pure
Cream: TOBS Grapefruit
Razor: '71 Black Beauty (2 passes on 1)
Blade: Gillette 7 O'Clock (3rd & done)
Post: Pinaud's Bay Rum, Lush Imperialis moisturizer
I messed up making coffee this morning (grinding error), which very rarely happens, and as I was cleaning up I thought to myself that maybe I should skip shaving for the day.
Nonsense! my rational side insisted,
you're just being superstitious again. I started over with the coffee, left it brewing, and talked myself into shaving while I showered. I went with my larger brush in Pure because I was feeling kind of scritchy myself, and proceeded to make a mess of a perfectly good amount of TOBS. A watery, soupy mess that didn't cling well and dripped off my face, leaving behind a bubbly wake that clogged my razor upon contact and was as generally unsatisfying as a cold plate of nachos at an airport Friday's when you're running late and starving. On the bright side, I'm finding that the Lush Imperialis is better on my skin by far than anything I've used as an ASB.
