Acca Kapa 1869
Rudy Vey Chubby 2 clone
Fatboy w/ Personna Med Prep
Razorock R-160
It was almond heaven this morning. Acca Kappa provided awesome lather, 3 pass with the Med Prep cut through the stubble, and R-160 scent made this shave one to remember.
Good Morning!
Cetaphil Face Wash
Merkur Progress (set @ 3.5)
Feather Blade
Simpson Eagle G2 Pure
P160 Tipo Morbido
Alum Block
Witch Hazel w/peppermint & aloe
Razorock R160 A/S Balm
Fantastic shave this morning with my all time fave P160...so glad I've got another unopened kilo @ home...Finished the shave with the new R160 balm...very nice scent, non greasy, quickly absorbed into the skin and really feels great. I'm not a balm guy at all but this stuff is quite nice and a perfect match to the P160. Have a great day gents!

Oh hey, cool theme! I'll do that tomorrow.
This morning was:
Gillette Atra w/ CVS Cartridge
Omega 48
Real Shaving Company "Moisturizing" cream and ASB
Three-pass BBS.
I used to have some trouble with this cream, bowl lathering and using a DE. I revisited it yesterday as I enjoy the scent, and I've found that I simply need to use more product and mind the water ratio. That along with my soaked and shaken Omega 48 (face lathering) have given me luxurious lathers and afforded superb shaves. This stuff is great.
