    Another outstanding shave, courtesy of the Wolfman and the AoS.
    Dare I say, the AoS is one of the top "creams" on the market.

    Taking inspiration from Clint @clint64 I have selected MdC for my next 3017 victim. In water this is a top tier soap, on a par with Tabac and vintage Old Spice in terms of performance and in terms of scent the Fougere is my favorite amongst my soaps. To kick this 3017 off, I went with top tier steel too. An epic shave. I do add some liquid lanolin everytime I use MdC.

    Fougere is my favorite MdC scent as well.

    Happy Tuesday Everyone. I decided to use a 2 part lathering method this morning. I started off by using the brain bowl like a shave stick rubbing it over my moistened face. I followed this by loaded the brush vigorously Zenith. Face lathering and adding water slowly yielded a rich thick lather. Just wow. I know how I am using this bowl each day from now on. Fantastic shave to start the day. Take care and have a great day. ​

    AoS Peppermint~~Vie-Long Beehive~~Barbasol Floating Head/Polsilver~~Montale Leather Patchouli
    Yesterday I used one of my lightest razors. Today, one of the heaviest in my den.
    The Barbasol FH is a deceivingly aggressive tool.
    The Polsilver blade was a tremendous partner of said
    razor.
    Stank du jour: Montale Leather Patchouli.
    I SMELL!!!!


















    Great! :happy097:

    My 3017 is not as challenging as ones I have done in the past, however, it still takes a modicum of willpower
    to use the same soap day-after-day.
    Outstanding results with the Super-Speed. It's a real joy to use.
    The stank is...for lack of a better word, unique.

    Happy Thursday everyone. I am up and moving very early this morning for a follow up appointment with my cardiologist which went great. At least I was able to get a great shave in before leaving for the appointment. Take care and have a great day.​

    You may recall me talkinabout how my Mom suggested I try a shower and shave the next morning, after being bed-ridden for 4 days with the flu many years ago. She was right-I got my energy back.

    A shower and shave never hurts. Fortunately I was not sick this morning and only had to go in for a follow up exam.
