Dovo Bismarck 6/8
Altesse Badger brush
Omega soap
Booster Mosswood A/S
Polo EDT

DFS shave! I had to be work a little for this because the Bismarck was pulling a little so I took it to the barber's hone after the shave and stropped it so the next time I use this razor, it should shave like a dream again! Since I am off for the holiday, I used my wife's favorite scent rather than the Aqua Velva I usually use on Monday.

C&E BBB
C&E Sandalwood sc
Thayers Lemon WH
C&E Sandalwood a/s balm
C&E Sandalwood Edt

A C&E Sandalwood day...excellent lather combined with the Henckels resulted in a terrific shave. There was a time when I couldn't use a straight on the morning I worked out but I seem to be getting better on both accounts and it certainly feels good to have made progress. And today will be better than yesterday.

Good day Gents!....Todays S.O.T.D.

Today was my second attempt at making Uber lather and it went way better than the first! Im sold. Im also really starting to like the Boars. If you soak em well first they are real comfortable on the skin and whip up the lather very quickly.
Have a great sunday and a greater week.
I bid you all good health and good shaving.

This morning I had to clean out the man cave where I was re-assigned after the daughter took the original. I had kept a bunch of old computer stuff including a 1600 bit per inch reel to reel data program tape for a 4383 IBM main frame. I guess the wife was correct, I am a hoarder.

Great shave today. Enjoy the rest of the Holiday for those that are off of work.
