Monday. Another day, another DFS.
Notes: First shave with an Old Style Gillette. Musgo still smells funny, though not actually bad. Derby blades work, but they aren't the best. I wish I hadn't bought so many.

I had been somewhat unimpressed the last time I used the Coconut cream, but I spent a bit more time on the lather this AM and was much happier with end result.

... and I am damn happy to be working.

Hardware: Gillette Redtip w/Derby blade, Superior 22mm SBB, Weller bowl

Software: Dave's Mystic Lavender Glycerin Preshave, Musgo Real SC, witch hazel, Calvin Klein's Euphoria ASB

This is the best lather I have ever had from Musgo. It's been good, but this was great. The problem is I have no idea what I did better this time. :001_unsur:
