    Yep, me too. I'd love ideas on shaving the corners of the mouth with a straight. That's where I get most of my nicks these days.

    Thanks, Patrick! I am grateful that I only get weeps and not nicks and cuts. I just don't want to ruin my pretty face.;)

    In my case, the whiskers are very coarse and I go ATG instead of XTG in that area. It's not every shave that it happens. I think I will try to go on an oblique angle to see if it helps. That's the toe at NW and heel at SE.

    Two Dawn washes, one shampoo and five shaves. The Zenith is officially defunked.

    I don't think alcohol based AS age you. Granted, I am quite a bit older than you, but I have been using alcohol bases splashes for a over 5 years, and honestly, my skin looks younger now than it did before I started. Those commercials against alcohol splashes are designed to sell balms. I do use balms as well, especially in the winter months, but more because my skin gets dry than for anything else. If you like the splashes, then I say use the splashes.

    I love your shave reports, Jeff! The photos are beautiful, the gear is always fantastic, but the candid report of how everything goes is what I enjoy the most. The rosewood handle, btw, is gorgeous.

    Great report, Paul! Glad to hear you're liking that Gentleman, and that you're getting a little-bit-better excellent shave with your set up ;)

    Thank you, Evan! It doesn't take long to get a fairly large collection built up when you hang around this site.

    I tried an Axe product one time, and that was enough. I certainly don't fault anyone for wearing that, but it just isn't for me. Sounds like your nephew is on a good path.

    Ok, I want to say that I like my Dovo Shavette very much. However, in order for me to really understand you non-Dovo shavette shavers, I decided to purchase a Parker Professional Black resin scale shavette. Hey, it cost me $15 with free shipping, so why not!

    Photo, as always, is stunning--that Prismatic continues to impress me.

    Really cool, reflective report. With the exception of lavender and tobacco, I've shied away from florals because I was afraid they'd be too flowery (especially anything with rose). Your report has me seriously reconsidering that bias. :)

    Much as I hate responding on my phone, I'd never keep up up if I waited till I could get to a computer :D

    Thank you Jason. Enabling? Me? Couldn’t be....

    The Frozen Mojitos is down to just above an ounce left so I have that on the run.
