Good morning Cadre! Hope you had a pleasant evening.
It's "Women of Rock" Wednesday and today I'm featuring a couple from Debbie Harry and her band Blondie. Hope you enjoy.
Fantastic shave today! @GearNoir and Jack Palance inspired me to have a classic Skin Bracer shave today. Phoenix Shaving's "Shave Chaser" soap's scent is practically identical to the after shave. Two passes and a touch-up and I finished with a splash of Mennen "Skin Bracer" after shave and a spray of Phoenix Shaving's "Shave Chaser" EdP.
Hope you have a great day.

Love Debbie Harry and Blondie. I don't understand the Jack Palance reference.

If you have to do something...
Great shave! I agree with you - @Bill M is a talent when it comes to smooth edges! Have a great day!

Good morning Cadre! Hope you had a pleasant evening.
Going back to one of the greatest albums ever made for today's music selection.. From 1983 here's The Police with Synchronicity. Hope you enjoy!
Cold morning. Not @woodpusher cold, but still frigid nonetheless. Perfect morning for some warm spicy bay rum! Went with Fine's new Bay Rum soap. Great, true bay rum scent which gives a nice tropical note to today's shave. Great lather for two passes + touch-up and I finished with the matching splash and a spray of Zino Davidoff EdT.
Hope you have a great day.

Some piano jazz with ambiance for your Friday morning. Hope you enjoy.
Great shave today. Went back to Phoenix Shaving and their "Sun Down" soap / AS. Not many more shave is this tub. There are two rather large holes in the soap where I can see the bottom of the tub. Luckily I got a few backup tubs before the line was discontinued. Two passes + touch-up for a DFS+ result and I finished with the matching Star Jelly After Shave and a spray of YSL "M7 Fresh" EdT.

Getting some music going for you this morning with a couple of early 80's gems. Had "1st Wave" playing pretty much all weekend on Sirius and man, that brought back some great memories! Hope you enjoy!
Fantastic shave on this frigid morning. 21° when I got out of bed this morning. So I decided to go with Stirling's "Barbershop" with it's warm, amber and talc with some vanilla and bay. Great choice! Two passes + touch-up and I finished with the matching splash and EdT.
