December 6, 2016
Mongoose B2 with Triad Ti
Feather Super Pro (6)
WDC-8 with Druida Manchurian
Nuavia Rossa
Witch Hazel

The WDC/Druida whipped up the Nuavia Rossa into a rich lather very easily.  The knot has the great backbone and scrub with very good flow through.  I stayed with my 2 pass routine, XTG & ATG, followed by touch ups in my trouble spots.  I was so close that I decided to chase the baby and get that one spot on my neck.  I caught the little guy finishing with a BBS.  I hope everyone has a great Tuesday.

Great set up amigo!

Unwittingly picked software that rhymed with Bergamot and Bay. Perhaps an omen for the day?

SOTD: 12/6/2016 - "All Stainless"

Pre: Hot shower
Soap: Captain's Choice Products "Bay Rum"
Brush: Brushguy Shave Supplies "Noah" 3-band Badger
Razor: Phoenix Shaving Stainless DOC Evolution w/ Polsilver Stainless blade (1)
Post: Captain's Choice "Bay Rum" aftershave balm & "Cat O' Nine Tails" aftershave

A great shave today. I love this Bay Rum scent from Captain's Choice. Perfectly balanced IMHO. And they all perform very well. The brush was fantastic, as I would expect. The razor is one efficient beast. My beard had no choice but to run in fear.

Be Smooth and shave it up, everyone!

Lot of CRSW being used this week.

Parker Variant razor
Gillette Silver Blue blade
Vie-Long Silver Tip brush
Dr. Selby 3x SC
Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
M&L Florida Water Cologne w/added menthol

Moved the Variant setting to 3 for today's shave and it was a good move. Smooth, comfortable and effective, great shave. Of course, it was helped by the Dr. Selby SC which I think is a much overlooked product. At any rate, I'm ready to go and lovin' the Parker Variant razor. Now go enjoy your day folks.

1914 with shimmed GEM, Argan oil appetizer, Tabac. Pretty friggin great for a hundred year old razor.
