Omega Silvertip
Parker 22R V1/new Sharp
Noxzema lather S/C :happy005
Canus goat's milk moisturizer
Burt's Bees Bay Rum A/S balm
Yves Saint-Laurent Pour Homme EDT

I originally planned to shave with Godrej cream this morning, but because it's going to be warm today, I felt a need for another mentholated shave. Once again, I should say that when I first moved to Canada, and even before then, Noxzema was my exclusive lather shaving cream for many years, until North America stopped carrying it. There's also nothing like a good, new blade!

 

WOW! That looks really nice!

Still got a bad cold

Prep pre
QED Fresh Lime
Edwin Jagger BBB
Mastro Livi Razor
Anherb A/S/C

Wierd shave, my sense of smelling totally blocked by my cold so the experience lacked a dimension. Even the Anherb A/S/C didn't smell, but I felt the menthol vapourizing in my eyes, extremely odd senastion.
