It is all kinds of citrusy goodness and the AC splash is so good.
You aren't part sun baby? Come on Bro...you live in California and aren't you orginally from an island?
Sunburned testicles. Not that I have ever suffered from that. Just seems like a fair answer to that question.

Sounds like a '90s grunge band. I just googled the phrase, and regret it. Some sites recommend sunscreen...
I am so sorry you had to see (whatever it is you saw) any of that...blame Dave.
Rainy but it’s still Friday! Enjoy the weekend!

Let’s get caught up shall we?
Lovely shave. Soap was dialled in nicely and the EJ89 was wonderfully mild but smooth as could be with a Nacet loaded up. Topped it off with some CK Eternity Aqua.

Happy Friday shave! The Gillette Sheraton is a fantastic shaver though it still falls short of the 34-35 A’crat I have. That bad boy is my Grail razor and one great story. But I digress…the Sheraton with a Nacet left me smooth as silk! So good. Enjoy your weekend Cadre and stay safe!

Hey Chris Hapoy Friday but that was Monday’s shave! I know…I have been slacking and got furry! Thus the Sheraton today @GearNoir
Well a full seven days without a shave…at this point @NurseDave is imagining a windswept foreign land where a rugged and sun darkened Somnos would fit right in…and he would be right. Took a set of clippers to reduce the beard to the point anything other than a straight would have had much luck. All good though. Fresh Dorco Platinum in the AS-D2 and a very nice and a thoroughly enjoyable shave! Happy Friday all…enough of the bazaars…time for a pint on the deck!
Stay safe Cadre and silky smooth…
