OCtober 28th Gillette Old Type w Astra SP (2) WD HM Badger Stirling Port-au-Prince SS Thayers Florida Water AS Shaved earlier this evening before we went out to a community Kid's Halloween thing. I spent a little extra time with this new-to-me OT. I didn't have it dialed in as well as my other one on the first shave. Got a great lather and had 3 1/2 passes to a DFS. I have been getting closer with my other OCs this month. This is a really smooth feeling razor, which is not what I'm used to in an OT. I'll used it for the last two shaves of the month as well. Finished with another new product- Florida Water. Pretty standard product for many of you, however it is much tougher to get here in British Columbia. I got this as part of a hardware for software trade. Wasn't sure I was digging the scent out of the bottle, but it seems to pair very well with the P-au-P, and I enjoyed it. Face feels quite nice still, actually. Have a great Sunday tomorrow all!
OCtober 2017 XXVIII October Double shot of the Veg. Neat, no chaser. Two for the win. Relaxing and hoping everyone has a great time this weekend. It's nice on the prairie. Other than that...all is quiet in Colorado. Have a superb Sunday!
I'm glad you got to experience Florida Water. Is it the American made by M&L? There's also a South American version by the same company. Out of China, Two Girls brand makes their version. I'm really not trying to Enable having only tried the first one. If you haven't read up on the history of the cologne it has some interesting uses. Some users report that it affects their dreams in odd ways. Sleep well!
Very cool you like Florida Water! It makes a superb hair tonic as well, my most often use for the stuff.
Liked it well enough after one use, I guess, to decant it to a glass bottle this evening. So far, so good!
M&L, but I don't have the original bottle. I got 3oz of this and 3oz of Clubman from a generous fellow 30DCer. Much tougher to get in a brick and mortar store around here.
The current bottles for both aren't much to see - inexpensive plastic. If someone got that to you in the mail I don't want to know any details. The USPS prefers not to handle highly flammable liquids. Very good of the Mysterious 30 DC member to slip you some good stink across the border!
The leaves are pretty much done. We have noticed that we didn't get as many red leaves as we used to get. So far it has been a warm Fall. Thanks for the kind words. Sent from my STV100-3 using Tapatalk
Great lineup. I bet the SOC boar is well broken in now. Is your Supply Provision razor the Version 1 or 2? The MMOC looks like a beast. I see many refer to the Old Type as aggressive. The one I tried and gave away was much milder than a New LC. The manufacturing tolerances must have varied greatly over the production run. Lovely brush Jason. I hope you enjoy the remainder of the weekend. A double shot of the Veg. You are certainly chosen. Love the vintage look and feel the background adds to the photo Charlie.

My Supply Provision is the original version, which I kickstarted. I really like the look of the new black model and Version 2 was supposedly tweaked slightly for improved performance. However, my Version 1 already works very very well and I don't really need two. So far I have been good and not bought the black Version 2. Of course, it would be a perfect match to my newly refinished Delta Echo Ink model Gillette adjustables... I think the SOC boar is well broken in now. But it definitely will be after being used for a month straight during November...
