Shave #121 (925 Open Blade Shaves) of 2024:
Gear: Tedalus Essence, Feather ProGuard blade, Simpson The Duke synth brush, Stirling Agar soap, homemade witch hazel/aloe, Nivea Sensitive AS Balm, Brooklyn Grooming Anchor AS, and Acqua Di Parma Colonia to finish!
A bit better of a night’s rest, thankfully. It was nice to not have any sports related stuff to do yesterday…other than maybe catch a little of the A’s game on the TV.
Great shave this morning! No complaints! Decided to pull out ADP Colonia for the finisher. Nice, refreshing, light, sweet candy lemon…I may have sprayed a bit over zealously.
IDT first thing this morning and most of the work day will be spent at the EOL facility. Church group later.
Have a great Tuesday all!

Shave #122 (926 Open Blade Shaves) of 2024:
Gear: Tedalus Essence, Feather ProGuard blade, Yaqi Sagrada Familia synth brush, Stirling Agar soap, homemade witch hazel/aloe, Nivea Sensitive AS Balm, Fine American Blend AS, and Tom Ford Beau De Jour to finish!
The day of the hump! Still a bit tired this morning but overall a better night’s rest.
Great shave this morning. No blood, no complaints! Decided for a midweek pick-me-up and did a Rive Gauche dupe/BDJ combo frag finish. Swimming in sweet lavender and herbs right now. So good!
A bunch of visits around town today. OT workout later along with some take out dinner. Should be a decent albeit warmer day. Slated to reach about 80.
Nothing starts though before a professional cup o joe! Headed out shortly.
Happy Wednesday all!

Does BDJ offer an unscented version?

That’s the beauty of using up a fragrance completely. The fully empty and cleaned bottle still provides many years of unscented fragrance application. You may have to really spray heavily though to get the full effect of its scentlessness.

It's from the same man who has to go out for a Professional Cup O'Coffee.
I'm skeptical, but then I don't believe in empty perfume bottles either.

Shave #123 (927 Open Blade Shaves) of 2024:
Gear: Tedalus Essence, Feather ProGuard blade, Yaqi Rainbow w/ pony synth brush, Stirling Agar soap, homemade witch hazel/aloe, Nivea Sensitive AS Balm, Brooklyn Grooming Anchor AS, and Dior Sauvage EDT to finish!
Tough OT workout last night. Was rewarded well for it though with some good Mexican fare to go. I’m sure the soreness will set in later today or tomorrow.
Great shave this morning! Only one little catch on the corner of the mouth but it didn’t weep for more than a minute and closed up on its own. Decided to rock the Sauvage today. It’s supposed to be warm days…70s…for the foreseeable future!
IDT first thing this morning. Then some home visits. Hopefully dropping in HD2 to spread some democracy later!
Happy Thursday all!
