Friday:

Omega Silvertip
Parker 22R V1/7 AM day 2
TSD Avalanche S/S :happy005 :drool
Lubriderm unscented moisturizer
Denim Axe A/S
Thierry Mugler A Men EDT

JoAnna's soaps are such delights--this Avalanche has about the same cooling level as Ingram. The lather, scent and skincare are also great. I find the Denim a/s and A Men EDT a very similar match.

 

Great photo Colby!, I like the cropping

 

Here here, a close up or 2 would be nice

 

Baxter scrub
Thomas Anthony Brush
Georgetown scuttle
TSD soap - rose/neroli
Merkur HD
TSD aftershave - Rose EO
C&S #88

I made up the rose/neroli blend out of the 2 soaps I had in the cabinet. I wanted to make something similar to C&S. I must say it turned out very good!

Thanks, guys. I'll work on the close-up shots.

this was my first run with a C&E soap. It provided a nice lather and a decent shave. However, it didn't have the same WOW effect that I got with Mitchel's Woolfat. I think I'll use it for the next couple of shaves to get a better feel for it. The important thing is my wife likes the scent.
