My 3 year anniversary of quitting smoking, so I thought it appropriate to use a soap which shares its name with the French word for tobacco!

To be honest the cologne is tomorrows fragrance while and the Gillette ASB is suitable for my skin overnight.​

Whatever the hell my badger brush is
Racer blade (3)
Body Shop Maca Root Cream
Real Shaving Co ASB

Had to get rid of 36hrs growth with first use of the racer blade on saturday which meant about 5 passes and some touchups, but pretty impressed with the blade. Stuck a new one in ready for tomorrow.

A lovely shave with two days growth the Feather AS gave those whiskers a good whipping, I rate the Vulfix Persian musk highly, it is such a lightly scented shaving cream it will fit in and layer with a lot of shaving scents and balms, my lovely Wife as a few well deserved days off this week, so we are off to the big city for a spot of retail therapy.

Cheers Michael, but I didn´t exactly come out empty handed on that trade, it´s one sweet piece of steel though, I stilll remember that one and how nice the steel felt *nostalgic tear in one of my eyes*

No shave today ... I know, I´m as shocked as you guys:

Synchronicity...

Same here - no shave today. :-/

In an attempt to enjoy my shaves even more, I've lately started to shave every couple of days or so.
