    I received a phone call today asking me to come in for a job interview in 2 hours. So I finished what I was doing (razor work) and went for a shower and shave. Ended up being a little pushed for time and only doing 2 passes, throwing my gear on the table, taking a photo and rushing out the door for the interview.
    Result: Very smooth, not quite BBS but very presentable.
    I love the menthol balm, SO Coooool. It's just what I've been looking for (thanks Glenn)
    So many great posts and pics this week, thank you gentlemen.

    Default Thursday Morning

    Prep: Hot shower – followed by Proraso pre-post-shave cream
    SS/SC: L’Occitane “Cade” + L’Occitane “Cade”
    Brush: Rooney 3-2 faux Ebony “Silvertip Badger”
    Strop: VB Red Latigo 50 fabric; 55 leather
    Razor: 5/8” Boker “Red Injun”
    Astringent: Thayer’s “Lemon” Witch Hazel w/ Aloe Vera
    ASB: L’Occitane “Cade”
    EDT: L’Occitane “L’Occitan”
    Result: Outstanding 38th wedding anniversary shave…

    L'Occitane never disappoints. Lots of nice, creamy, fragrant lather that is a joy to shave with. And the balm and edt make for a very nice soothing and delightful finish.
