SOTN Thursday - Going Green

prep - shower with Caprina Fresh Goat’s Milk with Shea Butter bar soap
razor - British Flare-Tip Rocket
blade - Shaverboy Super Stainless (3)
brush - Simpson Special 1
soap - Proraso Green croap
post - Clubman Jumbo Styptic Pencil, warm water rinse, DSA “Pure & Natural” alum, cold water rinse
aftershave - Jeris Osage Rub
music - streaming "datafruits.fm" - Techno out of Shinjuku, Japan

Oops. Two nicks on the chin, hence the styptic pencil. Too soon to use that blade in that razor.
I no longer think that Proraso Green sucks. It's perfectly fine as long as you use enough of it (½ teaspoon).
Of course I had to follow it up with Osage Rub for that eye-watering chill.
