  [*]Brush: C&E BBB
  [*]Cream: TSD Bamboo & Teak
  [*]Razor:'09 Gillette Old Style with Single Ring Handle for face & Bic Sensitive for head
  [*]Blade: Gillette 7 O'Clock Sharp Edge (shave 4)
  [*]A/S: Thayer's Rose Petal Witch Hazel Toner & C&E Sienna ASB
  [*]EDT: SCS Very V
  
  [*]Result: A great BBS shave without any blood. The blade worked like it was shave 1 not shave 4. Just love the scent of the Bamboo & Teak and hope that Queen JoAnna will someday make an EDT in that scent. This morning's shave was an outstanding start to a very busy Friday.

PS: Please don't complain about the color today fellas. After all it is Halloween!

I haven't tried a hot towel prep in a while (I usually shower then shave). It worked out pretty good. It was a near perfect shave. If I ever had any doubt before, I'm convinced that Sharps are much better on my neck than Derby's.

Saturday 11/1 . . .

• [*]Prep: Rite Aid Skin Cleansing Cream & Hot Towel
  [*]Brush: Vintage Ever Ready 150B
  [*]Soap: Tabac
  [*]Razor: '41 Gillette Regent Tech for face & Bic Sensitive for head
  [*]Blade: Gillette 7 O'Clock Sharp Edge (shave 5)
  [*]Oil Pass: Leisureguy's Last-Pass Shave Oil
  [*]A/S: Thayer's Lavender Witch Hazel Toner & AV Blue Ice ASB
  
  
  [*]Result: A smooth comfortable BBS shave. The blade is like it is brand new. Good go with it until it shaves like a Merkur blade then throw it away! :lol: I just love the Ever Ready brush for face lathering. It makes such nice lather and makes it easier to apply to my face due to being much narrower than my C&E BBB. I think this thing is boar. But it does not feel really scritchy as some suggest a boar would.
