2014 Gentelmanly Restraint Until Fall (GRU-Fall)

Still out!

Today's shave was a bit of a mixed bag and worked pretty well!

Gillette New (Thanks Justin!)
Soap was a combo of leftover Stirling Coniferous and half a sample of Stirling Barbershop = EXCELLENT
Little splash of Fine American Blend

Ya look good, ya feel good. That's a fact, Jack.

There's just something about the mild razor + sharp blade that feels right. Nice smooth non-irritating shave this morning.

Shaving is occurring when it can. Hoping to try and get the routine sorted for Monday morning shave.

Florida Water

Pretty good shave today. First time using Florida Water as an aftershave (previously just used it now and then as a cologne) and it's ok..but it burns more than any other aftershave I have used ha. Still love the stuff though.
 
Still holding strong in the out column.

This line up gives me consistently great shaves, and today was no different.

Abragus, I'm glad to hear that you're still liking the NEW :thumbup1:
 
Rounding the final stretch and I'm still in. I'm going to be entering the fall restraint but will pick up some aftershave to get me through the end of the year. Has anybody tried Captain's Choice North? Is that a nice fall and winter scent?
