Razor Ribbon 1000
Aftershaves Stirling Witchhazel Wintergreen + Proraso Green Splash
This is a surprisingly pleasant scented soap with good strength too. As with most Stirling, the lather is just impeccable...creamy and slick for the job!
Today's shave with this razor was acceptable. The razor's edge is smooth but perhaps not as keen. Managed 3passes for a sas result without any issues. Aftershaves were icy and just great.

Hey guys.. Hope you're all doing well..

COVID Quarantine Day 2.

Still doing okay. Feel like I have a bad sinus infection. Keeping a check on my vitals. Sense of taste and smell are completely gone and that's the weirdest thing about this. Had hoped to go in and get the monoclonal antibody infusion today but I can't get in until tomorrow at noon.

Great shave today. Can't appreciate the fragrance so I'll have to enjoy that tactile aspects of the shave (it's not the same 😕). I've found one of the things that a good shave and hot cup of coffee can't fix.

Take care everyone.

I’m relieved that it is milder so far and hope it stays that way! Here’s to you and a quick recovery and gaining your taste and smell senses back!

Thanks Brian. Glad I got the vaccine last May. Think that's helping out a lot. Got a close friend in the hospital now with it, intubated and unconscious. Docs are giving him a 50% chance of making it. He wasn't vaccinated. :(
