Razors: 13/16" Scheön Burg #775, Hollow, Spike point

Brush: 22mm Vulfix Super Badger

Überlather: CarrieM Lemongrass Shave Creme + TOBS Lavender Shave Soap + Glycerin

Astringent: Thayers Witch Hazel (Lavender, no alcohol)

Post-shave: Trumper's Sandalwood Skin Food

Facial Moisturizer: Trumper's Facial Moisturizer

Cologne: Penhaligon English Fern

Result: Early start to the day...It's almost 5:00AM and I couldn't sleep so I decided to shave and get back to my grant writing. I love my new Scheön Burg (got it from a member on B&B). It's a super sharp razor, where the combination of design, etching/lettering, and form come seamlessly together to create a great "eye candy" for anyone's straight razor collection. The Überlather (led by CarrieM's Lemongrass creme) was super slick today)...Gotta love this stuff . The Scheön was effortlessly gliding over the skin underneath this thick cushiony white snow like an Olympian skiing over a "perfect" slope. This entire choreographed shaving ballet was one of the best "Zens" I have had so far...what a great way to get the creative juices flowing. This was a great start to a brand new SOTD week.

Donald,
3 rounds of Sauna for prep? Sounds like fun
