Well, I apologize for not having this done earlier. But vacation called and I am having a great time! But alas, I am ready to go about my monthly duties. Since I failed to give you any themes for August 5th -11th, we just had a free week! But the rest of the month will be Fun, Fun, Fun...until your Daddy takes your T-Bird Away!

August 5 -11: Free Week - Free Week has almost passed us. But for the next couple of days lets see what you are shaving with! What tickles your fancy. What are your favorites? Work on getting rid of that soap that is just hanging on...etc, etc, etc.

August 12 - 18: Chill Out Week - It's the dog days of summer and everyone is hot! This is your week to Chill Out with whatever soap or cream makes you feel cool. If Menthol is your things...go for it. If you want to go Au Naturel with peppermint and tea tree oils...let your inner hippie take over. If it's a ghost or creeper that chills you to the bone...then get weird! One way or another...CHILL OUT!!!

August 19 - 25: TSC Artisan Shave Week presenting Mystic Water Soap @Mystic Water - I don't know about you all...but I have been using Mystic Water Soap almost from the beginning of my wet shaving life. It is seriously some good stuff and the scents are amazing. Either way...this week is dedicated to using Mystic Water Soap.

August 26 - September 1: Top Shelf Week - It's a term we use to express the best! It's used quite often when referring to a good spirit like bourbon, tequila, or vodka. Or often we designate the superior quality of something we bought as top shelf. The last week of the month is dedicated to our top shelf soaps! Feel free to use this week to shave with the best of the best. Or if you will...shave with a soap or cream that has a top shelf ingredient. How about a soap or cream that could incorporate a top shelf liquor like a martini or margarita! Whatever interpretation you use is your choice! Top Shelf week to finish off the month!
 
I don't have any Mystic Water stuff and I'm starting to get dirty looks from Venessa so I don't think I can buy more soap for a while.

But I'm down for everything else.
 
First shave this week I think or at least since Sunday. Free theme week might be coming to a close but I am sneaking this one in.
