USA, SOTD "themed week" September 5th - September 11th 2011

[Oscroft]

Well, I'm far away from most of my shave kit right now (I'm spending a couple of months in the Far East), and I don't really have any US stuff anyway - apart from my vintage Gillette razors, of course (and I've brought two of them with me).

So my respect for my US friends can only be shown through the use of those, and today...

Gillette 1960 Superspeed,
7 O'clock Yellow,
Proraso Green tub,
Semogue SOC,
Tabac AS

I know most of these products aren't American, but I couldn't not post something about my first shave with a brand new razor.

Hot Shower includes Bigalow face scrub
Merkur 180 (23c for you blokes across the pond: )
New Crystal blade (baseline test blade for new razor)
Vulfix 660s (currently my only brush)
Bigalow SC
Dickinson's Witch Hazel
Jeris Osage Rub AS (1st time with this stuff too. WOW!!!)

Result; Out-Freakin'-Standing!
