What a great shave this morning.  The Tres Amigos whipped up the Route 66 Frozen Margarita into a wonderful slick lather.  The cooling of the menthol felt great on a muggy morning.  The Mongoose/Feather Super Pro combo provided a smooth and efficient near BBS 2 pass shave.  I finished off the shave with the matching aftershave balm.  A great start to the day.  I hope everyone has a fantastic Thursday.

Great setup and picture Clint!

Used the same setup yesterday morning as well. Thoroughly enjoying this razor and blade combo, but I am interested to try a med prep in it as well.

Wash - Meissner Tremonia Puristic
Prep - Noxzema
Razor – Merkur 34C HD
Blade – Personna Med Preps
Brush - Duke 3 Best
Soap – OSP Bay Rum
Post - Witch Hazel

OSP lathered like a champ, the soap likes me, so it's a keeper.... the Merkur was far too mild, even with Meds, will have to seek a more aggressive blade next time, I've plenty to work through, so I'm sure I'll find something suitable. BBS, even though it took a while, so job done!
