Location: 36° 0'5"N - 115° 15' 21"W Razor: Palmera 14 Brush: Simpson PJ 3 Cream: Castle Forbes Lime Astringent: Thayers Witch Hazel ASB: E-Shave White Tea AS: Booster Lime Results: I couldn't resist. We had such has nice day that I took my Castle Forbes Lime for another spin. The intense smell of limes is just to addicting. It's been a long time since I shaved with my Palmera 14. 50 laps on leather and all was good. Another one of those immaculate fine shavers. To end my Saturday night with style I made myself a frozen margarita. (actually a pitcher) 
Have a great SOTD.

Lazy Sunday shave
Pre: Hot shower
Brush: Simpson Astor LE
Razor: Friodur (Merkur for head)
Soap: Dr Harris Marlborough
AS: TOBS no 74
Post AS: pure oil/essences
Result: very, very clean
Ahh, that was nice! I don´t often use oil., since I´ve got a rather oily skin, but during winter time it can work. Now I feel like an Egyptian prince (I hope they sort things out there, sooner rather than later) - soft, clean and shiny skin all over

I've done a few test shaves and have been learning to use my new DE over the last few days so it was nice to pick up such a beautiful razor and have a simple relaxing shave.
Result: 2 passes were more than enough to get me feeling smooth and satisfied. I dig my W&B.
Have a great week gentlemen
Thanks for all the posts and pics, I look forward to seeing them every day.

This razor is one of my newer ones, but I am already starting to like that little smile it has. The DFS this morning adds to the smell of fresh sourdough coming out of the oven. It should be a fine week.

Hot Shower
Stephan's SC rubbed into whiskers
Warm Oil
Hannah Cermic bowl
New Forest Badger Brush
The "Bomb" shave cream provided by Bill
Red Imp 133, full hollow
AOS Aluminum
Stephan's Lilac AS
Vaseline for men.
Only the second time using the 133. I used Crox and .25 diamond. It needs to be hones properly as it pulled ever so slightly. The razor is very light in the hands also. I like it.
Second time using the Bomb sample provided by Bill. Great stuff!!!!
