What's new

2015 Gentlemanly Restraint Until Spring (GRU-Spring)

#17 still in. Haven't shaved in four days as I was pulling double duty watching my two year old son and working a full day as well. Shaved off the four days of growth this morning and I feel reborn. Nice...smooth...face, oh how I've missed you! :).

Thankfully I missed the Maggard Razor moving sale during that time otherwise I may have been tempted.
 
#8 Still in (no temptations in sight as of yet)

#3 still in

SOTD

Progress
Nacet (11)
SOC
Tiki The Captain (veggie formula)
RR Alum
Thayer's WH

For some reason, Tiki gives me fits when I try to build a lather. The slickness is there, but the sweet spot keeps eluding me. Still, a DFS.
 
Still in.
SOTD
NEW SC, Soap Comander Love, CC Sandalwood AS.
For some reason the blade escapes memory today. Been kind of a rough one, so gonna have to let her slide.
 
Thanks for the clarification.

Waiting on ruling from the Boss.

Sorry for the delay with this, fellas. This week has been... interesting to say the least.

Morman Bridge, I rule that you are IN as long as you keep your personal den separate from your business supply.
 
#4 is still in. Shave of the night was the new Captain's Choice Bay Rum sample soap. Good performance but the scent isn't for me. My TOBS temptations have passed but now that Rapira blades are going so cheap on the 'Bay that's my new temptation. They are in my top 5 blades.
 
Good morning all, today's SOTD;
1956 Gillette Blue Tip SS.
1956 Gillette Blue Blade.
Proraso Blue shaving cream.
Chinese Badger hair brush.

Three full ill passes for a BBS! Have a great day!
