The set up for me this week is:

L'Occitane Verbena scented soap as a pre-shave
Open comb Gillette NEW, 1930ish
Crystal blade
Barbasol Brushless
Witch Hazel
Euphoria ASB

Foggy here in Houston and Christmas displays are everywhere. I find myself downloading Christmas music for the iPod.

This is the first time using this razor. I rescued it and a similar one for a buck each a while back. Both are copper and brass. Nasty looking then, but a long soak in some Simple Green dissolved the gunk and some Maas put a nice shine on them. A nephew has the other one. Have a good week everyone.

The Musgo real shaving cream is fantastic! The scent reminded me of a cross between speick and clubman, so I used the clubman AS for fun. At lunch today I will be running over (driving over, actually) to the caswell-massey and getting the musgo real aftershave...the scent of this one was amazing...talked myself out of it in the store, but have now talked myself into it after using the cream.
