@skypsyd - Excellent photo, Dave. Iced Pineapple ... how was that?

Thank you Ron, typical of Stirling the performance is outstanding, and just enough menthol to make it enjoyable, the pineapple scent is more natural than sweet. Very much a Late Spring / Summer Soap, without the "eye tearing" blast of the glacials or some other soaps. Just right. Pairs wonderfully with Fine Platinum and Creed Aventus, and allows the pineapple to peak through during the day. Good Stuff

President's Day Shave of the Day
--another travel shave, this time its all gillette--

1. hot shower.
2. Original Gillette foamy / Travel size. I used the canned gillette for years until I Discovered the shave brush 7 months ago. I only recently discovered sun up and paa sun down, this foam smells a lot like that.
3. Gillette tech, part of a travel pack with a tiny handle. I found the tiny handle fun and a nice change of pace. It forced me to use no pressure. we all know how great the tech head is, no need to review it.
4. Gillette after shave splash.
5. Gillette balm for sensitive skin.
6. Gillette Nacet 2nd shave.
....a fun travel shave!







 
@xxlpack - This classic portrait has a nice rustic feel to it.

Thanks Ron, by your comments on the vegan shaving soap I think someday I have to try one.
Good choice of scent for today :a14:

@Quijote - Welcome to SOTD, Donald. Love your mug. How do you like the razor
The razor is very mild. I wish I would have looked on here more before I purchased it and listened less to the Amazon reviews because I could have gotten a better deal elsewhere. That being said, it gives me a good shave, never cut me up too much even in my first few shaves, and it could be better with different blades.

Good to know about the soap, Dave. I'll keep it in mind.

Yes, try different blades to see how the razor performs with them. In time you'll probably want to add another razor or two.
