Happy Friday! So looking forward to the weekend but happy to be back at it after the Holidays. Reached for the Supply Injector today. I really must spend more time working on my technique with this razor. Still not getting what I know I can out of it.

Soap of the day, Dr Jon’s 13 with the matching AS. A lovely vegan soap and a great scent.

Lovely shave achieved and a spritz of Spicebomb to edge closer to the weekend! Have a good one!

I have no idea what that Dr Jon's smells like, but given we're not too far past 2020 I think you're tempting fate with a 13th on Friday.

Oh come Dave you have been duelling with a Machete for it seems like forever....I can't damage this handsome punim with a "13" soap...even on a Friday!... :sneaky:
 
I quote "Made with Oud, Hedione, Musk and Iso-E Super this fragrance is dark, musky and floral all at the same time. This fragrance smells how Steve McQueen looked, smooth and manly!"...that's how it smells @NurseDave ....like moi!
 
Happy Sunday! Just a nice and easy shave today. The Gillette Aristocrat Junior is a thing of beauty. Not pretty but it’s flat bottom and lovely plating coupled with its weight makes just effortless to use.

Happy Wednesday! Halfway to the weekend and hopefully all downhill from here. Cold and grey and so a little scent happiness was in order. B&M Seville always brightens up my day so it was called upon today with its matching AS.

I am on a run of Brit Gillette razors and so today fell to the more than capable Rocket HD 500. I am quite pleased I picked this one up and was lucky to find a minty one cased for a decent price. It has never let me down and when loaded with a Feather blade it is shaving bliss.

Lovely shave this morning and quite relaxing. Topped it off with some Coach for Men and off to the races we go. Enjoy the day and stay safe!
