THURSDAY MORNING

Crabtree & Evelyn Sienna SS
Tweezerman Badger
Georgetown G5 Scuttle
Gillette Ball-end Tech
Astra SP (1)
Alum block
Trumper's Astor Cologne

CCS - 2 passes - nice shave... Love the smell of C&E Sienna. The Tech/Astra SP combination is always a good one. The touch of cedar in the Astor works nicely with the Sienna...

Thought for the Day: We rarely see ourselves as others experience us, nor do others see themselves as we see them... Dial yourself back a little today and try to gain some perspective.

Blade: Gillette 7 O'clock Russian yellow
Brush: Omega 10005 boar
Cream: Speick SC
Aftershave: Speick AS splash

I've been rethinking my blade selection recently, and I think I like the Israeli Personna better than the yellow Gillette. I also have some green Gillettes from India that I bought after trying a pack, but I haven't started using them yet. Maybe this weekend.

Thanks for reading!
