Shave #129 (283 Open Blade Shaves) of 2019:

Gear: Supply Injector (1-Dot plate), Supply blade, RR Big Bruce synth brush, SS Citrus & Bay soap, Thayers Medicated, and Bootlegger’s BR AS to finish!

Minor detour day on the road to 300 open blade shaves...felt like using the injector today instead!

Everything went pretty smoothly except one little bit where I scraped over a growing pimple. I couple DFS patches I missed during cleanup, but overall a good shave! Bay Rum day is always a good one!

Today is my “Wednesday” at work. Should be fairly chill. I find out today at our grounds crew meeting what the weekend is shaping up to be. Not too busy I hope!

Headed into Mother’s Day weekend gents, don’t forget!

Have a great Thursday all!
 
Shave #130 (284 Open Blade Shaves) of 2019:

Gear: Feather AC SS folding, Feather Pro blade, RR Big Bruce synth brush, LNHC Coconut Oud soap, Thayers Medicated, Old Spice AS (modern), and Stirling Glastonbury EdT to finish!

Nice shave today, swapping out the Voskhod helped.

So glad I was able to snag @Aaron ’s BST deal. I’ve been hankering for some new CBL (blueberry muffin sounds divine...and it did come about after I ribbed @Dave in KY about his breakfast choices) getting to try a new LNHC too will be icing on the cake.

Busy weekend ahead with a Girl Scouts-like meeting and volleyball games today, full day foster parent conference tomorrow, and many other little things. At least I get to close up early tomorrow, once things are cleaned up for services.

Family is out of town for a day, headed off to see a triple A baseball game with my wife’s parents later. So I’m bach’in it for the night! Too bad I’m working lol.

Have a great Friday all!
 
Shave #131 (285 Open Blade Shaves) of 2019:

Gear: Feather AC SS folding, Feather Pro blade, RR Game Changer .68, Bic Chrome Platinum, RR Big Bruce synth brush, Scheermonnik Delfts Wit soap, Thayers Medicated, and RR The Stallion AS to finish!

I’m pooped this morning. Typical “didn’t get enough sleep due to absence of missus” effect. Off to work in a bit.

Shave was nice. Almost nixed the Feather for the shave due to tired eyes, but went ahead anyway. No damage! Yay!

Looking forward to getting off work earlier than normal.

Have a great Saturday all!
 
Shave #132 (285 Open Blade Shaves) of 2019:

Gear: RR Game Changer .68, Bic Chrome Platinum, TSC 1st Anniversary badger brush, CBL Oud Minerale soap, Thayers Medicated, Lucky Tiger AS, and Terre d’Hermes EdT to finish!

I am feeling beat! Excellent shower n shave though to kick off this Mother’s Day Sunday. Thank you to all the moms out there (and Wednesday morning Mr Moms too); I dare say near everyone has had at least one positively influential woman in their life, be sure to honor them!

Followed through with the TdH inspired shave this morning, simply superb all around. I wish my want list weren’t so long, TdH is definitely on there somewhere!

Services this morning. Perhaps a lunch out and short trip to a place the missus likes, as she appreciates and loves to do. I’ll be attempting dinner later...it’s that thought that counts right? :unsure:

Have a blessed Sunday all!
 
Shave #133 (286 Open Blade Shaves) of 2019:

Gear: Feather AC SS folding, Feather Pro blade, RR Game Changer .68, Bic Chrome Platinum, RR Big Bruce synth brush, A&E Revolution soap, Thayers Medicated, Myrsol K AS, and Chatillon Lux Lavande Poivre EdT to finish!

First use of A&E and Chatillon Lux products! Thanks @Dave in KY, really looking forward to the soaps the rest of this week!
