Wednesday's Dove Men Face Wash Col. Conk Bay Rum Shave Soap Jayaruh #4 High Mountain Merkur 15C Astra SP CWR, Asma Alum Block Thayers Cucumber WH Aqua Velva The Col. Conk Bay Rum Shave Soap face-lathered well with my Jayaruh #4 High Mountain badger brush. Two passes with my Merkur 15C razor and a Astra SP blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, alum block, and a final cold water rinse, I finished off with Thayers Cucumber WH and then Aqua Velva after shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
Here is my shave plan for Wednesday: Neutrogena Men Facial Wash Large Horsehair Barbershop Super Speed/new Derby Stirling Glacial Wintergreen SS Stirling Glacial Wintergreen AS Balm Stirling Glacial Wintergreen WH Chabrawichi 555 Cologne Another frigid set-up which is only for a true menthol addict like myself. The Glacial Wintergreen trio is some seriously-cold stuff. The soap freezes the heck out of you, the matching balm and witch hazel add to the frosty fun and give perfect skincare. A new Derby blade is on tap for me as well. This will guarantee me an outstanding and super-easy, close shave.
Guys after I shave and posted my SOTD I got so sick! I'm still not feeling well, I may have lost 10 pounds today. I believe I got a bug from my grandkids as they have been sick and over visiting.
I did a little searching and found its some sort of pigeon racing timer/clock if I translated properly.
