Shave of the Day (SOTD) Friday December 28, 2012
proxy.php
• Prep: Brush soaked in warm water, face washed with Neutrogena Healthy Skin Anti-Wrinkle Anti-Blemish Cleanser, luke warm shower
• Razor: Matador Open Comb mounted on iKon Bulldog Handle
• Blade: Derby Extra
• Brush: Vintage Brush restored with 18mm TGN Super Silvertip
• Soap: De Vergulde Hand Extra Fris "Croap"
• AS: Brut Original
• Post: Cold Water Rinse, Double Splash of Aftershave


I had to skip the area under my nose this morning, as the cut from yesterday is still healing. It does not look too good, I may have to skip a few days of shaving my mustache area.

The Matador combined with a Derby Extra provided a very nice shave. Close, comfortable and no raw feeling, which can easily happen with this razor.

Since I have another doctor's appointment this morning, I figured that I wear an aftershave that is fairly neutral to most people, in a worse case scenario my doctor will just think I smell like an old man. She knows that calendar may say that I am 49, but she knows better than anyone else that my body says I am 60
