vintage Simpsons best
'Webly'/Schick Plus Platinum (NOS 1969)
Klar Kabinett SS
Lucky Tiger AS and Face Tonic
No EdT for some reason

Third perfect shave with this razor/blade. This old blade works as well or better than the Iridium and certainly better than a Swede. I have maybe 60 left so I'm not getting nervous yet.

The soap was a pleasure as usual. Only rose scented anything in my rotation and that stuff performs pretty darn well. For some reason the shave was a little closer than usual today.

BBS results,

Martin

I've got several spots for the first time in years. Probably because I'm spending more time at work than not at work and I'm not eating properly.
