Neh, toss it in the mug and put some hot water in on it for a couple minutes. Toss the water out and lather up, adding some water by dipping the brush a few times til it's right. Swish it good.
3 or 4 drops of Glycerine makes it pop tremendously and glide better too!

Did a small test swirl to see how hard it might be. It lathered up pretty well with my boar. Only the shave will tell. Either Wednesday or the weekend.

Well, a new start to the working week after a busy weekend was heralded with a W&B shave. My body is still recovering from three hours of indoor bouldering (rock climbing) on Saturday. Talk about functional exercise. Talk about ‘whole body workout’, this has it all.

It was a great shave around my newly trimmed moustache, soul patch and goatee thingy. I decided to shorten the moustache ends; the Johnny Depp look wasn’t really working out; one end curled and the other didn’t, so now it’s more Edwardian gentleman/French impressionist painter. Or maybe in reality just some guy from Mount Torrens...

The Body Shop Macca Root cream ‘dissipated’ for some reason. This has been occurring with me a lot lately. I wonder why? Too much water? Not enough cream?
