This is the first Christmas week and we would appreciate if you could add, in your always beautiful shots, any Christmas detail of your choice. In other words we want to "feel" the Christmas spirit looking at your marvellous creations!
Toyo Special | La Toja Manatiales | Thäter LE 2011 Bulb | Thayers Lavender | Sabon | Pascal Morabito Or Black
What a great way to start this holiday week! The Toyo was smooth and sharp. I was BBS on all but the most challenging places after a single pass. Just did a few touch ups and left it with that. My face feels great, and I smell wonderful too. Everything is starting out on the right foot here!

I'm not really a Christmas fan so don't expect many Christmas theme shots from me. What you see above is probably about as Christmassy as I'll get - at least it has some Christmas colour
No shave, day of face rest. Bought my mother a toaster for Christmas because she could use a new one.
Monday morning:
Turkish horse hair brush Nr. 6
Arko stick whipped up in a bowl
Meijer/Personna single blade disposable, 1st pass
Super Adjustable, P-1, set at 3, 2nd pass & touch-up
Shark Super Stainless blade
Body Shop Razor Relief, <2008 formula
As good as Arko stick is for setting up a beard for shaving, the Personna disposable just wasn't getting it without more pressure than I'd like. Finished the job with the Shark for a CCS, almost DFS, just enough to get through the day.
Monday evening:
Turkish horse hair brush Nr. 6
Body Shop Shave Cream, <2008 formula, laced w. KMF unscented and whipped up in a bowl
Super Adjustable, O-2, set at 4, 3 for final pass and touch-up
Treet Durasharp carbon, 1st shave
Body Shop Razor Relief, <2008 formula
Last week's Treet Durasharp lasted just two shaves, where I usually get three. This blade is from a new pack and shaved promisingly tonight.
