If you have to do something...

Chris that was really awesome man! Thanks for sharing that. Honestly that looked a lot better than my first shave, which was with one of those plastic razors and a can of goo. I laughed pretty hard when you said you were going to do the ATG pass because it was a little more dangerous and his eyes got big for a second 😂. Skin Bracer was an awesome choice for his first after shave. I can't believe that I barely started using it a month ago! Gotta let him choose a fragrance next time haha! Again, well done!

Yea I didn’t get to see his reactions in the moment. It was fun to go back and watch it with the missus. It was a good laugh!

Thanks for watching!
 
Shave #98 (400 Open Blade Shaves) of 2020:

Gear: RR GC .84 OC, Sputnik blade, RR Big Bruce brush, CBL SIR Fougere tonsorial soap, generic witch hazel, Thayer’s Medicated, Master Jade AS, and Guerlain L’Eau to finish!

Corona Virus Official Day 23:

Just about at the end of the Guerlain sample uses...maybe another couple days worth overall, then that’ll be that!

Today’s shave was powdery fougere themed. L’Eau perhaps wasn’t a perfect match, but isn’t too bad, once the “grandma’s perfume” opening wears off. The .84 OC will he swapped out tomorrow for something else, perhaps the NEW LC? We’ll see!

We’re sat in the living room now, eating a light snack and listening to a couple chapters of Narnia on CD.

Have a great Tuesday all!
 
Besides LOTR, they were my Harry Potter of my youth!

I think The Sorceres Stone was released in 1999 and I started reading them when I was in 3rd grade. The Narnia books I believe I started in 4th grade, but those series and the Percy Jackson books were awesome.
 
Shave #99 (400 Open Blade Shaves) of 2020:

Gear: Gillette NEW LC, Sputnik blade, Yaqi Rainbow w/ brown synth brush, SV 70th soap, generic witch hazel, Thayer’s Medicated, SV 70th AS, and Guerlain Vetiver to finish!

Corona Virus Official Day 24:

A little mid week pick-me-up shave!

Sooo...this week is actually Holy Week for the church. Sure doesn’t feel like it. The church staff should be releasing some service-like video programs tonight through Sunday, so maybe that’ll change my feeling.

Sputnik was pretty rough today in the NEW LC, which is normally pretty tame. Area around the corners of the upper lip got roughed up a bit. I sure smell damn good though with that SV 70th/ Guerlain Vetiver combo!

Small groups video chat later this evening is the only official thing on the docket.

Have a great Wednesday all!
