Beautiful.

 

Did I ever enjoy my MITA soap just now, wowwwwww!!!

Tons and tons of some of the richest, slickest lather you could ask for with that beautiful citrusy/tropical scent and that invigorating menthol effect. The Astra blade is still holding up very well so my Super Speed was able to give me another perfect three pass BBS shave. The Lucky Tiger balm really wasn't that necessary but I used it anyway to get some extra menthol goodness and moisturizing on my face and the Alt Innsbruck felt icy-cold along with its delightful scent which my wife loves to hate!

It looks like the riptide warnings have dropped so we're gonna hit the beach - yessssssssssssssssssssss!!!!!

Have a great day, guys et je souhaite tout le monde au Quebec une Bonne Fete Nationale!

Thanks buddy. The CG razor was fantastic. I had to break it in with one of my favorite al time scents #9. I think I will use it tomorrow with Dirt and just enjoy. Have a great weekend Jamie.

As you know, I've been commentating from time to time about my showers. Let me, thus, make THIS commentate: Time to get cool/cold shampoos!!! Kind of a mini-Ice Bucket Challenge.

I can get great shaves from just about all my razors, but if I want to step it up a level, this razor paired with a feather blade is the ticket. Super comfortable 2 pass BBS this morning. While not in my normal scent wheelhouse, I am getting accustomed to Stirling Gentleman and it performs very well. Off to put a tux on for the first time in 27 years. Enjoy your day.

 

yet ANOTHER brand for me to research(WSO).

Tux, eh? Occasion, please?

 

Black Tie Event celebrating 90 years at the restored vaudeville theatre where I work.

I never have a reason to get dressed up, but since I did all the video editing for the media tonight I wanted to see it.

 

SOTD: Early Saturday shave using this vintage Hoshi Tombo 6000; a 13/16" western-style kamisori; Crowne & Crane 'Orange Frost,' TGN 24mm synthetic w/ olive wood handle, Fine 'L'Orange Noir' aftershave splash. Lovely shave. Have a great weekend, gents!

 

Glad it was restored, have a great time.

 

Do you have a link to the media? I would like to check it out.

 

Unfortunately it's not online. It will be playing on a screen spanning the width of the stage behind the act tonight during the opening and closing numbers. I have only seen it on my computer monitors at this point. This is a step up for me, I normally do sys admin stuff, but they needed me to put this together.

If I am able, I will grab a pic tonight.

 

Superb
