Notes

Good shave, not much in the way of post shave feel. After tomorrow's shave with Stirling Naked & Smooth, barring any surprises, I expect I'll retire this Catie's sample as it can't match the competition.

Switching to night shaves for a bit due to weird work schedule.

Razor: Rigarazor with Barber’s Notch
Hone: Dan’s Translucent Ark
Brush: Omega 10290 Boar
Cream: Proraso Blue
Aftershave: Proraso Green Splash

Nice face lather with this Omega little piggy and Proraso Blue. I really enjoyed the lather and soft, scrubby boar.

Another one of my Rigarazors made short work of my whiskers. Waiting on a package and then I’ll have a mixed Rigarazor Seven Day Set. Then I can have Riga-Week.

An easy shave before a quick nap and then work. I’m really enjoying the Proraso shaving creams, nothing too fancy they just work and work well. 9.5/10.

My first use of the TSF Toudi Froudi, and the 'jelly bean' scent from the description is spot on. All the mechanics of the shave were top notch. I think this was only my second Shave X blade, and it was perfectly fine handling my cutting needs.

Comments	One day growth. Another great shave with my Superspeed. It's been quite warm in the midwestern USA - 90 degrees + yesterday and today. So, I was looking for a cooling menthol kick. Three passes. One clean up. No nicks. No cuts. No irritation. DFS.
