If you have to do something...

:: packs this away for later ::
Tether this with the Son getting married meme that he laughed at - and I think you’ll be getting a nice bottle of 25 year old scotch and me the Swiss Blutt Rasur BR-1 that I wanted for Christmas…..

Of course it could backfire and Gear ends up sleeping on your couch for the week.

Shave #335 (635 Open Blade Shaves) of 2022:

Gear: Tedalus Essence, Feather Pro blade, Yaqi Moka synth brush, Soapy Science Lollipop Citrus soap, homemade witch hazel/aloe, Nivea Sensitive AS Balm, 4711 AS, and Dior Homme Sport ‘19 to finish!

Workout last night was rough! Unbeknownst to me until I got there, it was one of the monthly Aoki themed days…and generally special days or workouts mean a bit higher difficulty. Phew! But I survived.

Good shave this morning. Blade was a little iffy. Overall decent result though! Finished up with a nice gingery citrus vibe with 4711 AS + DHS ‘19.

Had some rain arrive overnight, which is great! Should be some more later and possibly Sat/Sun if we’re lucky. Otherwise, IDT meeting this morning. Some visits and a training to get through.

Have a great Thursday all!

I loved the 4711 AS and cologne, but was disappointed in both of their staying power. Great scent, though fleeting.
Agreed, I feel like the cologne at least should stick around for a few hours. Sometimes it does if I douse myself with spritzes. I guess it’s good though in the sense that you can reapply later or wear something else.
 
Shave #336 (636 Open Blade Shaves) of 2022:

Gear: Tedalus Essence, Feather Pro blade, RR Big Bruce synth brush, Clown Puke tub soap, homemade witch hazel/aloe, Nivea Sensitive AS Balm, Fine Platinum AS, and D&G The One + Rochas Moustache EDP to finish!

We’ve almost made it friends! It’s Friday!

Bit of a better shave than yesterday but the blade still felt uncomfortable some on the ATG…so it gets binned. Everything else was fine. Finished up with some darker, warmer scents - Fine Platinum AS + The One + Moustache EDP. Very nice 😎👍

Half day at least to be spent at the EOL facility…then we’ll see!

Hope you all have a great Friday!
