Location: 36° 0'5"N - 115° 15' 21"W
Razor: Zartina
Brush: C2
Soap: SRD Bulgarian Rose
Astringent: Thayers Witch Hazel
AS: Booster - Mosswood

Spring is in the air in Vegas. Trees and plants are slowly flowering and several of my cactus are starting to wake up from hibernation. Took out one of my favorite soap for the occasion, SRD's Bulgarian Rose. What a scent and total performance soap. I sure pray SRD will ever decide to offer a new batch. It's that good. The Zartina is a very smooth shaver. Nice full hollow singing razor. I'm as clean and bbs shaven as they come.

Don't forget to adjust your clocks. DST is lurking at 2.00am (Except Arizona and Hawaii)

Enjoy the new week, gents.

A sunny and very warm Sunday morning here in Oslo today.
This is one of the biggest days in Norwegian sports, the "Holmenkollen Sunday" with Ski-Jumping and Cross country skiing competitions.
I'm off to watch it, and I'm sporting a mighty clean shaven face after this great shave today.
Have a great week all!

Now Birnando is showing off the dust cover for his Birken Bag! He's really gone fashionable with his man bags...

Enjoy the Holmenkollen, Bjørnar!

Birthday shave, today!

Prep: Hot shower
Soap: Martin De Candre
Razor: Dovo Best Quality 5/8
Strop: Tony Miller Latino/Linen 50x50
Balm: Shave Butter
Aftershave: Pinaud Clubman
Pomade: Royal Crown

Beautiful day in Chicagoland complimented this superior shave. Been neglecting my straights for a bit, due to time and convenience. Felt great to take this top-shelf talent for a spin.

Sidenote: has anyone seen the bottom of one of these MdC jars? Going on 8 months with the 170g and have barely made a dent. This could EASILY last me 2 years.
