Bourbon Country Shave Journal - Dave in KY

I dunno, if it's rainy I think you can just stay in your truck and they'll never know if you did the windows or not.

Got your razor back in the mail for ya. Escaped that enabling!
 
The weather doesn't sound too fun, but you had carrot cake and coffee. Hopefully Lisa can fix your shaving world. Have a good one, Dave!
I swear I don't remember posting this. Must've been moments after I woke up at work.

Shave # 340 ( 393 Consecutive Shaves )
Razor: Rockwell 6s Plate 5
Blade: Wizamet (6)
Brush: Saponificio Varesino 30 mm Zircote wood
Soap: Dragonsbeard
Aftershave 1: Humphrey's Alcoholado Maravilla
Aftershave 2: Dragonsbeard Skin Food Splash
Balm: @LNHC Post Shave Elixir
Fragrance: Spices Boom (Spice Bomb Cone)

Had a stupendous shave today. 1st the 6th shave on the Wizamet in the 6s was smooth as butter leaving me wonder if shaves 1 and 2 on a fresh one in the RFB was a bum blade or the blade just didn't work in that razor. I'll swap the blades on next couple shaves to see. The Dragonsbeard is just wow. Glad I stumbled on to this artisan early to market. I noticed something when applying the skin food splash. My face was dry where as last time I applied while my face was wet and didn't notice something. Another person said it felt dry going on but changed after a minute. This morning I noticed the same effect. On dry skin I applied the splash and it felt dry rubbing it in but in no time my skin felt soft and supple. Nice stuff for the skin in this stuff and a winner for me as I'm fussy about the splashes I use and how they leave the skin feeling. Have a stellar day Cadre !!!!

Nice Remodel Dave! That Shower looked amazing! Dragonsbeard sounds like another soap that might make the rounds!
 
Good, winning shave Dave!

Uh oh, watch out...Dave’s been preservativified!
