Sorry, no outdoor picture. Still lows in the freezing range, and they are calling for rain mixed with snow soon in northern Germany...

So instead in a happy indoor setting this evening:

- balea face wash
- Palmolive stick soap, Cerrus badger
- Merkur 34c (HD), Wilkinson blade (1)
- Mennen Skin Bracer

The blade is a leftover of my Wilkinson Classic pack (cheap but decent DE for 3,45 Euros w/ 5 blades). Not the greatest, but not too shabby either.

Tues
Brush: Vie-Long Horse
Soap/Creme: Poraso
Razor: Schick Hydro Magic
Blade: Chinese Schick
Pre: Poraso Pre/post
Post: Poraso As balm.
Hair Groom: Jeris w/ oil
Result: DFS.
 
Prep: Poraso Pre-shave w/cool water towel
Brush: Van Der Hagen badger (Target)
Shaving Creme: Speick
Razor: Muhle R89 (current version)
Blade: Gillette 7 O'Clock yellow Russian
Aftershave: Speick aftershave splash
Cologne: Speick EdC (new formula)

This was an evening shave as I've been under the weather the last 3 days and I finally decided I needed to shave to try and feel better.

The cool/cold water shave is new for me, although I did try it a while ago. It worked out very well - near BBS and very little irritation. I'll keep at it for a couple weeks and see how it goes. I still use the towel, it's just cool instead of warm.

And I am very disappointed that Speick reformulated their EdC for the worse. :mad3:

Thanks for reading!

I felt a little insane out on my porch in the dark at 5:45 trying to balance my razor and brush, hoping the neighbor wouldn't go by.
