A Super quick one today as I got up late. I am sitting down long enough to drink my coffee (which is necessary. Went with CBL Ghost Lime to finish off the monthly "Cool" Shave Themes. I might get one more in tomorrow...but we will see. There is a lot going on with home and work tomorrow...so there may be no time for a shave. Anyway...I am pretty sure that Ghost Lime is my favorite citrus shave soap. The lime is the perfect strength and the Ghost that is that "cool" feeling is just the right amount of brisk. I think this might have been the first CBL Soap I have purchased.

I ended up with a just under BBS (and for me that is about as good as it gets). Splashed on a bunch of Essential Oil of Lime and the cool just kept on coming.

Great shave today! Once again, the one-two-punch of the Chill Mill & Ice Cube gave a face-freezing shave experience! Love the scent of the Phoenix Shaving "Sun Down". I've never tried the aftershave it's patterned after; Gillette's short-lived "Sun Up" but it must have been great as well. I hope they (Phoenix Shaving) comes out with a matching EdP soon.

As always, the Tech Hive brush whipped up a superlative lather with almost no effort required!

Hope you have a great day!

Great shaves guys! I appreciate the participation! I need to get another theme out for August...so if you all have some suggestions before I think of something later today...I am all ears!

Back to "Old" School August? Or is that September? We always went back to school in August but looks like our local districts are pushing back until September for Covid this year...

In before the lock!!! LOL!

Strong finish to the themed month! Great shave today. The Seville soap & splash have quickly become one of my favorite scents!! It's been nice getting to know the "Tech Hive" better.

Got my Captain's Choice Nor'easter just in time for the last "cool" shave of the month! I absolutely love the Nor'easter, it's a great balance of cold without being too much to use regularly. Chased with Osage and wow what a nice cool shave!
