Sunday:
Schick "E2", NOS Schick blade, Ever Ready w/Golden Nib Silvertip, Tabac + TBS Macca Root, Humphreys WH, TBS Tea Tree moisturizer.

1 pass DFS. Those Schicks are something else.
Also finally realized what the odor of the Humphreys has been reminding me of. Sake.

We had a bit of a thaw in the late November weather that we've been having, so I did my first Proraso shave today. Also used my Gillette New for the first time. Great shave.

Gillette New (thick handle)
Red Israeli Blade
Proraso Cream
Aqua Velva Blue.

The Proraso was good, but I didn't think it was near the level of the Truefitt creams that have been what I've used since starting wetshaving 3+ months ago. The Aqua Velva was a revelation however.:w00t: I loved it, and I never would have tried it had I not read the raves about it on B&B.
 
Sunday Evening Shave:

Shavemac D01 Silvertip
Lord Platinum (4th day)
Red Tip
Tabac Shave Soap
WWR/CWR

Welcome to B&B, have you talked to our resident Moderator Slaglerock?
