Hump Day

Snapseed.jpg


From past, to present, to Futur.

Started the shave off in the smoky, leather cockpit. The scent of gin rang through the air with accompanying gunfire, bringing tarte notes to the nose.
The modern Maseto made short work of whipping up the lather. Much slip, much cushion. Nothing more to say.
The slick, hefty Futur was primed to stun, not kill. Setting #5 with a Derby Extra on it's first outing made short work of stubble in one pass with touch ups. Oodles of blade feel, just how I like it. No irritation, no nicks, no weepers. Beam me up, Scotty.
Back to reality - back to the present. Extro Bay Rum gave me a lovely dose of post-shave smoothness, softness and some tingle. A liberal application one wanted, so a liberal application one had. Tea tree to spicy clove and bay, some citrus and nostalgic tarte notes to remind me of the lather of yesteryear.

All up a great touch-up this morning. 90% smooth, but looking clean. Usual problem areas but shaving two consecutive days meant I didn't fancy pushing it. Hope your hump-day shaves go good, folks.

A cold water shave today, boiler on the blink so no alternative. Much prefer hot water but nice for a change. Soap worked well today, the brush can lather anything. You can really see and feel the quality. Good shave and hopefully a hot water shave tomorrow! Brr!
