    Christmas Eve Shave 2015

    Late nite shave, getting ready for the fun in the morning. I just picked up this Old Spice "Egg Nog" Mug from 1970, and it's a real pottery mug, with the old style markings. Nice 2 pass shave with my favorite razor. Ahh! Hope y'all have a safe and Merry Christmas, on this blessed day!

    Christmas shave:

    Prep: Hot shower, Nivea for Men Original Moisturizing Face Wash
    Brush: Omega 11575 Boar
    Lather: Godrej Lemon-Lime Mist cream
    Razor: Birth year/quarter Gillette Black Handle Super Speed
    Blade: Bic Chrome Platinum (2)
    Passes: WTG, XTG (3, 4)
    Post: Cold water rinse, Bloc Osma Alum, Dickinson's WH, Captain's Choice Cat o' Nine Tails AS splash
    Cologne: Gigember Estragone by Dr. Vranjes

    Weird week all around left me with a few days' stubble. I nearly changed plans on my 'next in the rotation' Godrej in favor of some of the goodies I received for Christmas, courtesy of @mhari_dubh and @soapbuddy, but decided to stick with the plan. Lather was adequate for two passes; I would have needed to add more to go for a 3rd. The Bic on day 2 was very comfortable in the Black Handle SS, and with a little buffing, I got DFS results.

    Merry Christmas to those who celebrate.

    Wow! My youngest son really did a great job picking this Gillette Milord. I'm rather surprised how efficient the Milord is, great 3 pass shave. I smell so good I should be illegal. Intoxicating. IDP is fantastic! Oscar11 made a mountain of lather in no time, finished with XXX. Off to the in laws later on in the morning.
