2020 Traveling Box Round One

Day 3

Furbo Blu SS
Fine lightweight slant
Omega Brush

Floid Blue As



Pleasantly surprised by the slant. 2 passes BBS.
Soap did not have much of a scent but produced a nice lather.

Day 4

Shick injector
Shick platinum plus day 1
Jefferson Square SS
Omega Brush
Soap Commander AS

Loved the injector. The AS had a nice pipe shop vibe to it. The menthol was a nice bonus.

Glad you’re enjoying the box, I’ve been trying more injectors lately. I have a few SE razors to add to the box so feel free to keep it.
Make sure to try the Round 3 soap as well.

You, my friend, have shaved in one week about as much as I do in 3. Don't mean this as a criticism, just an observation. Must be one of the "bennies" of me being retired, I guess!

Shave on brother, shave on!

 

I’m retired as well, but do enjoy shaving daily. Sort of helps to structure and start each day for me. I just don’t shave at 5:30 AM anymore.

 

I too had all these good thoughts of sleeping in daily. But, then we got this miniature poodle and guess when he figures he needs to go out in the morning? Yea, that's right! 5-5:30 as regular as clockwork. Oh well!!!

 

My little guy, Gromit, actually likes to sleep in! He won’t budge until at least 7:30. My kind of dog!!

 

I love the feel of a clean shave and shave even when I skip my shower. I'm not retired, but when I was off work for 2 weeks over the holidays I still shaved every day. Funny because 2 years ago I shaved once a week about the time the beard itch started.

I'll post a box shave everyday I have the box. When I had it last there was a shortage of soaps I was interested in. I think that has changed now.

You're lucky!
Our Jack is so habit driven he does what he does most everyday within an hour window of each thing. Up 5-5;30 and looks for breakfast as soon as he gets back in. Walk at 10ish with lunch at 11ish. Walk again close to 2pm/1400 and supper/dinner around 4pm/1600. Last walk close to 5pm/1700 and bed around 9-9:30PM. Counts heads and doesn't settle until "everyone" is in the house.

Thanks for putting me out to pasture. Just kidding. I’ve been saving daily for over 37 years when a college girlfriend complained my stubble irritated her cute face.

In my 20s and 30s it was suits , ties and a daily shave. If I had a date or dinner to go to after work it was a quick afternoon shave at the office and a clean shirt.

Now it’s just a morning ritual after my coffee and before my shower. Guess I’ve always liked the feeling of a clean shaven face.

If they are not feed at 5am they get very vocal.

Is Lustry Blue spice any thing like AV?

 

Looks like we need puppy treats in the box.

 

I would say it has a more Powderly scent to it. Classic barber shop smell to it.

Day 6



Liked the Lea. Lather was good scent not to overpowering.

The Box arrived mostly safe and sound, Pinaud musk was leaking.

Initial takes ....


Initial gives ....

 

Sending the box out today hopefully. Been very busy .... sorry I haven't posted much.

I'll post final gives and takes later.

Receive some news that never has a good time to come .... terminated from my position (plant wide). I'm not really concerned, just motivated.

 

Been there. God Bless You!
