Wednesday

Rooney style 1 small finest
D. R. Harris Arlington soap
7/8 spike Friodur with Oryx scales
D. R. Harris face milk
Czech & Speake No 88.

Had a terrible sinus headache, so I was glad to escape without incident. The excellent shave was a nice bonus. And the smell of C&S#88 always puts a smile on my face.

Cool shower, hot towels
Edwin Jagger best badger
moss scuttle
Trumper Limes
Tony Miller #1
Kronpunkt 4/8 (was pulling so switched to backup)
Dubl Duck Goldedge 5/8
TAZGMSC aftershave
Royall Lyme

Kronpunkt was pulling a bit, enough that it wasn't going to be enjoyable finishing with it so I switched to the duck. I set aside the kronpunkt and will touch it up on the pasted paddle and see what I can do with it.

A really great shave. I can't stop touching my face

Friday:

Rooney style 1 small
Truefitt & Hill Grafton cream
Moss Scuttle
Illinois strop
7/8 spike Friodur with Oryx scales
Pinaud Clubman

I was pleasantly surprised at how quick this shave went this morning. I did get a small nick, but that's typical when I use cream (except for cremo-cream). If only I didn't love the smell of Grafton so much!
