I'm new here but I'm going to jump right in because I'm excited.
Razor: muhle R41on a Weber Bulldog handle
Blade: Gillette Silver Blue
Shave Cream: Castle Forbes Line
After shave: Lucky Tiger Face Tonic
After After shave: Lucky Tiger Hair Tonic

On most parts of my face it feels like there was never any growth at all.

I was able to go against the grain first which is the first time I've been able to do that with any blade/cart/straight etc.

I find the light oils in the hair tonic prevent my face from drying out. Plus I like the smell.

Merry Christmas (or Happy Holidays if that suits you better.)

Chanukah, our Jewish Festival of Lights, begins at sundown tonight.
A lovely "calendar coincidence" that Chanukah and Christmas are together !
I'll be treating my face very nicely and looking forward to a great shave.
Best wishes to all my B&B friends for a Happy Chanukah and a Merry Christmas.
May all of you and your loved ones be blessed with health, happiness, and humor.

@Doug57 - Great dizzying picture, Doug. Neat shadows. Excellent choice for support of your elements.

Thanks Ron. The sun was shining for the first time in several days. I couldn't resist.

@Smooth Steve - Ah, the mystery of the Grove. 19 shaves on the Feather....

Love Grove. Wonderful scent. 19 and an excellent shave. There is at least one more in there. I think 20 will be the last....
Merry Christmas,
Steve
