Acceptable shave today. Got 7 hours sleep last night but woke up feeling like I had only 3 or 4. Shave suffered a little for it. A little more feedback from the alum this time. Loved the soap though. Great slick lather and the scent is very nice. Finished with vintage Avon Öland splash (with added skin food) and a spray of Dior Homme EdT.

Hope you have a great day!

Lawrence Welk Birthday, 1903. I was coerced into taking dancing lessons at a Welk studio when I was 13, and I had a crush on one of the instructors, Barbara Boylan from the TV show.

Wow...super impressed with this cream. Almost didn't smell anything but upon lathering...yes!! Nice, really nice pleasant scent. The cream is fantastic...just a little turns into a richly creamy and really slick lather. Good stuff...!!
Shave with the AC razor and blade setup is another enjoyable silky smooth, comfortable, and efficient 3pass for a BBS finish. The aftershave is terrific too. Awesome session!

Another very smooth shave. The old soap has lost most of its scent, although its lather otherwise is still good; so I'm not sure how long I'll keep it, since the smell is an important part of the experience for me. The Paradigm came with an extra top cap with very slightly different threading on its post, which enables the use of a wider variety of handles. The aftershave is another one with a really nice slow burn.
