    Thumbs up 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!

    Last nights shave was in the shower,therefore, no picture.....

    Stephan's Shave cream
    1959 Gillette Fat Boy Wilkinson Blade
    Thayer's Cucumber
    Vaseline for Men

    What I find amazing is that the Wilkinson DE blades I use, The second shave is the best. Nice, close comfortable shave last night.
