Razor: Clauss 6/8"
Strop: Livi (loom)
Prep: Hot shower, Musgo Glyce Lime Oil Soap
Brush: Omega mini badger
Soap/ Cream: Shea Moisture (Shea Butter & African Black soap)
Aftershave: Shea Moisture (Tea Tree Herbal) Aftershave Elixir



Today I'm trying out some new product I just bought. The Shea Moisture line.
I like the cream, nice clean & light citris scent.
The Tea Tree Herbal Aftershave Elixir I need to give it a few more shots before I pass judgment. Its got a real grapefruit scent. And all it reminds me is cracking a container of grapefruit juice. Luckily its not a strong lingering scent.
I found the cream was real hard to lather, will try a stiffer brush next time

Gentlemen may you all have a good and fruitful Sunday. (And in my case looks like is gonna be a Grape-Fruitful Sunday)

Post - Alum block followed bu Thayers witch hazel

We are on a run or just getting consistent with another close smooth shave. The razor was one of the slightly heavier grinds. Looks like I am lucky and can get decent shaves from just about any grind or size razor with the type facial hair I have. Enjoy your Sunday and don't forget church.
