If you have to do something...

Great shave! That's the double-edged sword of 4711. It smells wonderful, but doesn't have much staying power. I still go for it though, as those few minutes are wonderful!

Nice shave this morning with a proven setup... The Clown Puke tub soap scent is just so fantastically unique and enjoyable.
Hmm, a proven setup leads to a nice shave. What a concept! And clown puke soap, or in my case MSB, always performs well. You're starting to catch on, Chris! ;)
 
Shave #242 (433 Open Blade Shaves) of 2020:

Gear: Feather AC SS folding, Feather Pro blade, RR GC .68, Astra SP blade, Yaqi w/ brown synth brush, CBL Barbershop soap, homemade witch hazel/aloe mix, Lucky Tiger AS, and Annie Oakley Stampede EDT to finish!

Missus was out of town last night through this evening. So I took advantage and stayed up late, slept in, and getting in some games between chores.

Pretty decent shave this morning. I was a little heavy handed with the Feather AC SS, but I’m attributing some of it to the occasional acne that has been popping up from close shaves + long shifts of mask wearing. Still, little harm done though.

Kids have done their chores, I’ve got lawn watering and some laundry to do. Already washed the dogs. Check check and check.

Have a great Saturday all!
 
Shave #243 (433 Open Blade Shaves) of 2020:

Gear: Schick M adjustable injector, Schick Twin blade, Stirling 2-band synth brush, Stirling Hipster soap, homemade witch hazel/aloe mix, and Stirling Hipster AS to finish!

Corona Virus Official Day 168:

Ugh. Didn’t get a good nights rest but I’m up anyway.

At least the shave was good! Opted for smooth n face roll easy and wasn’t disappointed. Great lather with Hipster. Cheated my way to BBS with 3 passes and some cleanup on the Schick M. What more could a guy want for a morning pamper?

Coffee! Yes, coffee. Ran out of cold brew so I brewed a cup of regular, just left it sitting in the cup while I shaved. A little whipping cream and some extra sugar and it’s nearly as good! I’ll need it.

Air quality is a bit iffy today but nothing was called off...so here we go!

Have a blessed Sunday all!
 
Shave #244 (433 Open Blade Shaves) of 2020:

Gear: Schick M adjustable injector, Schick Twin blade, Paladin Harlequin Chief 26mm
brush, CBL SIR Fougere tonsorial soap, homemade witch hazel/aloe mix, Pitralon Classic AS, and Royall Rugby to finish!

Corona Virus Official Day 169:

I always hate it when I wake up before my alarm goes off. I know it’s probably a great thing...but I always feel cheated.

Great shower n shave this morning at least. Decided to do a repeat of the razor because why not? There isn’t much razors like the Schick M or Tech can’t do for me, though it’s nice to have stuff like the Vector too. 3 great passes with some cleanup; smelling fresh,clean, and a little green.

Back into the swing of things this week. Kids start zoom classes mid week and work will begin to ramp up a bit with the opening of the preschool. It’s something.

Have a great Monday all!
