Shave #169 (973 Open Blade Shaves) of 2024:

Gear: Tedalus Essence, Feather ProGuard blade, Stirling 2-band synth brush, Stirling Agar soap, homemade witch hazel/aloe, Nivea Sensitive AS Balm, Fine American Blend AS, and YSL Rive Gauche to finish!

Ugh, Monday. At least it will be a shorter week since we’re taking a long weekend.

Great shave this morning. The clown puke tub set decently after being left out all day yesterday and through to this morning. It’s not packed full…but there is quite a bit to work through, as it’s a moderately full TOBS tub. Rive Gauche to see me through the work day!

Happy Monday all!

Shave #170 (974 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, Captain’s Choice Venture AS, and Fine Platinum EDT to finish!

Another morning feeling tuckered out. Blech.

Great shave at least! Chuggin right along on the road to 1k open blade shaves. Decided to do the Aventus dupes today to finish things up.

Another full day ahead. Better get to it!

Happy Tuesday all!
 
Shave #171 (975 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, CBL Barba AST, and Penhaligon’s Sartorial to finish!

More long days. Our EOL facility is really having an uptick this week, sadly.

Great shave this morning. Nothing really new to report. Only a couple spots of irritation. Smelling great though!

Another full day ahead visiting folks new to service and old. No OT workout this evening unfortunately, as they canceled evening classes for Juneteenth.

Happy Wednesday all!
