Monday

• Soap:Tabac
• Brush: Golden Nib Knot in Ever-Ready handle
• Razor: Merkur open comb slant
• Blade: Iridium (#2)
• A/S: Thayers followed by AV Ice Blue

Iridium blade already felt dull on its 2nd shave. Granted it has been sitting in bathroom for almost a week...

Hello everybody!!

A simple yet pleasurable shave to start the week:

Palmolive European Classic SC ~ Kent BK4 ~ Merkur 38C / Gillette Yellow 7O' ~ L'Occitane Cade ASB

And a few drops of a L'Artisan Parfumeur Méchant Loup sample to top it off.
Well, birthday is in July and I must confess it gave me thoughts...

I wish you all as pleasant shaves and a great week!

Hi Leon,

Nice pic, as often, and good to see you around here again. While lurking, I was already found of your pics and stuff, besides, I seem to share your crush on retro goodies...

I'm also glad you seem to have solved your Website hosting issues; now WHEN is the Lavanda back!??

Warm regards,
C_J

Hi Dunn,

What's that aftershave in the background?
At least, I hope yu use it AFTER you've shaved with your straight, right?

MONDAY MORNING
Hot Shower
Gem Jr. 1912 (Fat Handle)
TSD Magnolia (face lathered)
Dickinson's WH
Clubman Bay Rum AS

Tunes: Styx, Super Tramp, Led Zeppelin

A simple no frills two pass shave with a new CVS blade. Loaded my last one this morning. Think I prefer the Walgreens Gem Personnas to the CVS variant (although the CVS brand is a couple bucks cheaper). The Walgreens blades seem to be just a much better quality (last longer, less discoloration, better edge, etc.)
