Shave of the Day (SOTD) Thursday December 27, 2012
proxy.php
• Prep: Brush soaked in warm water, face washed with Neutrogena Healthy Skin Anti-Wrinkle Anti-Blemish Cleanser, luke warm shower
• Razor: Re-plated Nickel Gillette NDC 40's Superspeed
• Blade: Personna Med Prep
• Brush: Semogue SOC Boar
• Cream: Proraso Menthol and Eucalyptus with added Menthol
• AS: Aqua Velva Classic Ice Blue
• Post: Cold Water Rinse, Double Splash of Aftershave


It is so nice to have the Superspeed back in rotation although I gave myself a nasty cut above my lip with it today. Neither the alum block or a styptic pencil would stop the bleeding so I ended up using a styptic powder used to stop bleeding if you cut into the quick on dog nails. I think I lost my "razor memory" of using it, so I need to use it a few times per week to gain the feel of it back. The cut looks like it may scar, so for the next few days I may have to allow the 'mo to grow out some before attempting to shave under my nose again.

The rest of the shave went flawless and was very enjoyable. The cold of the extra mentholated Proraso along with the Aqua Velva made my face feel great afterwards.
