The beginning of another work week! The books in the background are Moleskine journals, one for work,
one for personal information. I've used them for years, and highly recommend them! My notekeepers that go every where I go! Today's shave music by Sergio Mendes and Brasil '66.

Sidenote...for the past three weeks, I have used my hair dryer to help expedite the drying of my brush. As Richard has reported previously, no ill effects and a great bloom of the brush!

RR, (do you have a first name we can use?)

Aloe 80? I absolutely love it! Seldom a day goes by that I don't use it. I'm on my first bottle, since May, and have hardly put a dent in it. It leaves my skin feeling smooth, fights any razor burn, and leaves no scent behind. Since I live in a dry climate, I not only use it on my face after I shave, but use the excess (and this IS intentional) on my elbows, which are always too dry. IMO, no shave is complete without it!

The picture is a complete and utter fabrication. I set it up, and then went to happily shave away, and to my surprise, my Tea Tree tube was entirely empty (save for some hard crusty business). Needless to say, I was shocked and mortified, and decided to throw all caution to the wind, and used equal parts Trumper's coconut and sandalwood because I had some samples lying around that I was never going to use. The combo was actually very pleasant.
