Whenever I go to shave, I assume there’s someone else on the planet shaving, so I say “I’m gonna go shave, too.”

Wolfman WR-01 Ti OC with Hempel Ti
Feather
CH2 Synthetic Jade LE “Tres Amigos Dos”
Route 66 Twisted Tweed
Witch Hazel
Floid Blue
A very nice relaxing shave this morning. The Twisted Tweed provided a great rich slick lather. I enjoy the scent and find it dissipates about the time the shave is complete which I find nice. Sticking with my normal 3 pass shave with minimal touch ups ended in a near perfect BBS. Using this razor consistently for the month has really helped me us it to its full potential. I finished off the shave with a splash of Floid Blue and now I am ready for a relaxing day of college football. I hope everyone has a great Saturday.

Here in East Texas, sweetgums typically turn yellow quickly and then fall. With a late rain, they'll go from yellow to a rich burgundy and hold on for a bit longer. Silver maple deliver richer colors as well. Also, if it's dry, oaks barely get a chance to change before turning brown and falling off. With the late rain, they remain golden on the branches for much longer. Of course, hickory is grouchy. regardless of rain. They turn yellow and fall overnight. My favorite are the tupelos, though. They begin turning a deep red with the first hint of cooler weather and they shed fairly early, but they leave a beautiful carpet of deep red that reflects and makes everything within proximity of the ground glow. This is my favorite time of the year! (as you can see as I ramble on...)(11-26-2016, 01:13 AM)120inna55 Wrote: Stirling Soap Co. - Gatlinburg

Sure, I have lots of cedar / woody / bergamot soaps, but this one is done in a unique way. I also not that it transforms much like B&M fragrances do. Hours later (after having documented my first impressions), I picked up on slight powdery base with a countering sharp, resinous, almost agarwood/oud fragrance. It's quite complex and very very nice.(11-26-2016, 01:13 AM)120inna55 Wrote:Another splendid photo and review. Oh, and great — another item to add to the shopping list…Stirling Soap Co. - Gatlinburg
