Today's Shave
Gillette Red Tip
Feather Blade
TOBS Sandalwood shave cream
Suribachi Bowl
Kent BK12
Geo.F.Trumper Sandalwood SkinFood
Results BSS WTG
This is the first time I've unleashed the Bk12 In the bowl, and after I'd satisfied the brush with the enormous amount of shaving cream it demands by just scooping and putting the cream into the bowl, the results were just as good as yesterday's.
The loony brush finally had it's chance of freedom and it loved it, my god that was overindulgence with a capital "O" :icon_cheesygrin::icon_cheesygrin:

Hot flannel
Proraso Pre, white
Simpson Colonel X2L brush, Nanny's soft soap, Tea Tree and Aloe Vera
Gillette Fat Handled Tech, Rapira SS (3)
Cold splash, alum block
Clinique post shave healer
Had to work gingerly around the excised-mole areas... so the Tech was deployed. Very smooth result.
Hoping to pick some LEA up in Tenerife in six weeks time

LEA new stick scent, or his absence, is a mistery. With a good scent, they could sell it for five times the price.
THURSDAY AFTERNOON
Back to work tomorrow.
Consequently need a good shave to pass muster.
Weber DLC
Astra Platinum (2)
Semogue 1305
Woodhead suribachi with various hard soaps
Witch hazel
Castle Forbes AS balm
Too cold for a cold water shave. Luxuriated in warm water and wiped away 2 days growth with no bother. Lovely.

Sheeeesh, using a beloved children's toy is really hitting a new low (or high) when it comes to you enabling me with shaving crap. Yeah, of course I grew up playing with a yoyo. Heh, it was something a city kid could do without needing a big field. Stuff like cat's cradle, round the world, and lots of 'stick' time. Matter of fact, I still have an old one from the 80s around here somewhere.
Now I am really old, but I still remember a few of the various models than Duncan would come out with once a year. One was red lacquer with rhinestones and another was an all while one. We are talking late 1950s-mid 60s.
Next it'll be the Cobra pictured with a favorite dog breed of mine.....maybe being shaved?

That's very nice.... I used to yo yo as a kid but never had one like that. I did get my old spinner out earlier for a refresh, it wasn't very successful. I'll stick to Walking the real Dog now.
