I've barely got any Swedes left now

Razor: 5/8” Dorko
Toner: Thayers “Lemon” Witch Hazel w/ Aloe Vera
ASB: Nivea for Men - High Performance “Extreme Comfort”
EDC: O’Boticario “Portinari”
Result: Well done! O'Boticario's "Portinari" is a delightful, long-lasting Brazilian fragrance. It provides a great finish to a great shave.

PREP: Hot shower with face scrub

RAZOR: Muhle DE

BRUSH: Rudy Vey Dark Chubby

SOAP: Razorock XXX

ASTRINGENT: Thayers Unscented

ASB: Skinfood

EDT: YSL M7

RESULTS: FANTASTIC SHAVE!!!!!!

Started using the De's more often, one for time issues, but also to switch it up every now and then and really focus on the prep, and software. This was a great shave. The razorock provided a great cushion and scent for todays start. Also the Muhle did its job and wiped away my 3 days growth with ease of 2 passes. Followed up with some YSL M7 and Im a happy shaver

AWESOME SHAVES THIS WEEK BROTHERS!!!

Hi Robert. Thanks for your comments. I never thank you enough.

I took the plane in Barcelona airport. In Europe, if you only has hand luggage, Open razors and blades are forbidden, except safety or disposable razors with enclosed blades (multiblades). You must check-in your luggage if you want to take a SR. But I decided not to check-in, because I had to change plane in Madrid, and the probabilities of losing baggage were very high. And I love so much my SR!
