A fantastic way to start the New Year. The Tedalus, Paladin, Litsea Cubeba by @CBLSoap.com some Reuzel and Cedrat. Are you kidding? It does not get much better than that. 3 passes and DSBBS. Took down all the Holiday Decor today, Now to relax, have some Chinese Food and enjoy the evening by the fire.

A clone is a clone and this is a good clone. A but more pineapple forward than Aventus but good all the same. New blade in the Blackbird Ti, and three passes of goodness. Some Talc, some Skin food and off to enjoy the final day or vacation, before having to force myself to go back to the shop and make people pretty and shave their faces, and get paid, well I might add since I raised prices, I have a tough life, LOL

Have a Great Day

Very quick pre-dawn shave to day as we head back to the shop. Looks like it is going to be a busy day. So, a nice Proraso shave today with the Vector

A nice finish with the Endymion EdP and some talc and off to the races

Have a good day folks

Pre-dawn shave. Cold, rainy this morning and a good cold snap on the way, with temps in 20’s and 30’s with snow possible on Sunday. It is exciting as we don’t get snow that often. @AvocadoQueen does not share my feeling on this and was making a mad dash to cover all the plants yesterday

Oh ya….. A shave. The Black Watch is perfect
For a day like today. Nice plum notes with a Sandalwood back makes for a nice warm feeling shave and a tremendous fragrance.

Thank God here in the states, we have lids on our trash receptacles @woodpusher, so we don’t have to worry about trash flooding

I may consider starting a “go-fund me”

“Garbage Receptacle Lids for Canada”

“They gave us Captain Kirk! We can return the Favor”


Have a nice day folks
 
I've been pondering all morning how they keep the snow out of the bins???? To say nothing of the feral Hosers than can often climb inside.....attracted by the scent of stale beer.

Very nice early-morning shave today. Super cold outside with it being about 30°. Still looking at possible one to 2 inches of snow on Sunday night so that should be fun. As far as the shave, the vector and the Hoffman‘s dogfight were a great combination this morning.

This is a very unique scent. It has hints of Aventis, but it also has a smoke and an aviation fuel vibe to it that are really really really cool.

Wonderful the lather and also the shampoo bar was used today as well with the same exact fragrance notes so all in all a good shave DSBBS as always with the vector

Hope everybody has a great day

Sub-freezing temps this morning and at o-dark-thirty, a lazy shave was in order. The Vector got the call again, as it can give a DSBBS shave even if the user is half asleep and guzzling coffee

Spiced, and Old spice always the perfect line up for a frosty morning, with snow possible tomorrow

Great shave for my Friday at the shop, and Matchy, Match on the watch as well

Have a great Saturday folks!

All @CBLSoap.com shave today. Received my LC Witch Hazel, and LC Aftershave tonic and BOY HOWDY what a shave! A cold Rainy dreary day outside, with temps in the low 40's ( Summer for @woodpusher ), but very nice inside the den. Lemony, herbacious goodness with the Cubeba.

I have not shaved with the DX for quite some time, and had no idea how many shaves on the Pro-guard, but as it turned out, just superb. I do think that this is @CBLindsay 's swan song for a soap. No other soap I have in the den has this face feel, nor residual slickness after each pass. Plus, post shave, your face feels amazing, especially with the WH and Aftershave. This one is STRONG. In fact there is no need to and EdP. I think Chris pumped up the Fragrance for me and it is great. This aftershave tonic seems a bit thicker than his norm, which makes it even better.

A true DSBBS Faceturbating worthy shave today for sure. A few dabs of the AS, also acts as a frag, and is wonderful.

Hope everyone has a Great Sunday
