Sun April 29th - Sat May 05th
Location: 36° 0'5"N - 115° 15' 21"W
Razor: Bengall
DE: Gillette Fatboy
Brush: Thater SRP LE
Soap: Castle Forbes - Lime
Astringent: Thayers Witch Hazel
AS: Booster Lime AS
For today's shave I tried to mix things up a bit. Stropped my Bengall, 25 on linen, 50 on red latigo and got my Gillette Fatboy loaded with a Super-Max blade. It was lots of fun. Did WTG with the SR, XTG with the DE, ATG with the SR and a few leftover tough spots with the DE. Not a stubble left. My skin felt smooth as silk. It is all about having fun and a great shave.
Enjoy the upcoming new month of May!
