I'm having too much fun shaving...Todays shave was pure fun, too cool, and so enjoyable I feel guilty...And now I can't keep my hands off my face...:happy108
My only complaint is it was only 2 passes....But anymore would have been redundant...But I sure loved every second of those 2 passes...

 

• Lord L6
• Voshkod (6)
• Bullardo badger-bristle blend
• boosted TSD B2 SOTQ
• AV Ice Blue

Tried a little different approach than my last 5 runs on the L6; stay tuned for the review

The Bullardo is a bit weird....I'm not sure I like it but am going to give it several more good tries before I reknot it. The handle is beautiful but the knot is just plain odd......

4.25 out of 5 blades today

• Hot Shower
• Omega 21047 ~ Badger Boar Mix
• TSD L/R Iced Watermelon Sorbet Soap ~ :freezing :freezing
• Wilkinson Sword Sticky
• Gillette Permasharp Blade ~ Day 1
• Thayers Witch Hazel/Osage Rub Blend

First shave with a Sticky in a long time, and I have too many whiskers leftover, seemed like I had a bit of trouble finding the correct cutting angle at times.

 

What a Sunday!

Hot Shower
Green Marvy Mug
Sabi Badger
TSD Angel type Wheat SC
Lady Gillette Stars - Dark Blue
Super Max Super Platinum (2)
Cool Water Rinse
Hyatt Portico Citrus & Lavender Body Lotion

I really enjoy layering scents, unfortunately TSD store no longer offers the Angel type scent in anything .. some cologne and ASM would sure be nice! The fruity lotion worked really well with the spicy SC though. Guess I will just have to purchase the real deal.

Have a relaxing week everyone!
