Chad's adventures of shaving, officiating, and life

Razor: Razorock Eco
Blade: Feather Half DE Gillette 7 o'clock permasharp (4)
Soap/cream: McVeyMac Lemongrass
Brush: Custom Brush
Aftershave1: Lucky Tiger
Aftershave2: Aqua Velva Musk

Well been awhile for an update here, but here I am... been shaving daily aside from while camping. But planning on bringing gear this weekend trip. The shave today was wonderful The Eco razor has proven to be a good razor and I do enjoy it. The soap from Walt (wish he was here) is providing a great lather. Been moving to using the AV Musk the last few days and been enjoying that as well.

Getting ready to head out on another camping trip leaving tomorrow afternoon and returning Monday afternoon. We are going to 9 Mile Canyon which is about 3 hours away and there's a lot of history there, including petroglyphs, fresh spring water, and a Butch Cassidy secret hideout that he used. Looking forward to the time away again! The motorhome is a blast and really happy with the purchase. Although when I have to replace the tires I am sure I will curse it.

Aftershave2: St. Charles Fairway
Talc: King Talc

Well another nice shave this morning, and realized I didn't add the talc to my shave info. Been using this for about a week now. I do like it, and it doesn't seem to interfere with my aftershave so I will probably continue to use it, but doubt I will fall down the rabbit hole. We shall see though. The St. Charles Shave Fairway is an excellent scent and sadly when it's gone it's gone. I wish they would share that scent formula with someone like @CBLindsay for example so it can live on.

Working a half day today so we can ge the motorhome out and about before the roads get too packed with afternoon traffic. About a 3.5 hour drive and looking forward to the trip. We will return home Monday afternoon sometime. Anywhos have a great weekend cadre and happy father's day to all the dads around here since I will miss ya on Sunday.
 
Sharing that scent with another artisan would be pretty awesome!

If I don't speak to you before Sunday...Happy Father's Day to you too!
 
I'm pretty sure I'm a one talc guy. I did go for actual talcum though.

many have tried to duplicate Fairway but none have been the same sadly.
Wendy told me that the scent in it was carrot. Not sure if she meant actual carrot, or like a carrot top scent, but it literally does smell like carrot tops. I've told this to Chris, but I'm not sure if he's ever actually tried a carrot scent.

Wendy needs to tell Chris the exact oils used and ratio. LOL
 
There's some other scents of her's I'd love to get more of as well. Refined was amazing and Very V!
