The only good thing about Monday morning is the shave:

Merkur HD w/ Derby Extra
Vulfix 2234
Tabac Shave Soap
Alum Bar
Thayer's Rose WH
Feather ASB

Penhaligon's Blenheim Bouquet
 
Schick 1940's injector with Ted Pella stainless PTFE-coated blade
Simpson Ranger
JM Fraser cream
Alum
Thayer's a/s
Musgo Real
De Vergulde Hand a/s balm

The Pella blades are great - had two shaves and they are really sharp, not to mention a screaming good deal at $4.50 per 20.
 
Shavemac razor w/ Derby blade

Tabac SS
Saint Charles ASB
Saint Charles Sandalwood EDT
 


Gillette Tech w/ Merkur Super Platinum Blade

A rushed, hectic Monday shave.

1940s Gillette Super Speed
Fresh Derby
Scrubby Chubby#2 Super
Taylor's St. James
Feather Kanwa ASB

Definitely an A shave this morning aside from my first ever nasty nick from the SS. This Taylor cream lathers like nobodies business but could be a little slicker or more cushioning....
 
A leisurely, relaxing Monday shave (my summer grad seminar is finally over, and there are 2 weeks before classes start!):

Shower:

Ginger & Lime olive oil soap
Neutrogena dandruff tea tree shampoo


Shave:

Thanks to Kyle's "secret" tips, I'm on a run of stellar shaves--as smooth and close as I've ever been. Indeed, a new level of closeness. Its good to be a wet shaved man!
