Wednesday

Merkur 1904OC + Feather Day #2
Vulfix #2233
TOBS Hypo
Nivea ASB
Lime Skin Food
J. Varvatos EDT

Yesterday I did a couple of passes and touch-ups, and I could notice today that this was the last day for my Feather.

I have not worn cologne in months, so today my nose is sensitive to the Johnny V. A lot of the scents worn on this board are not to my wife's liking, so my scents reflect her schnoze's tastes.

I should get my shaving package (12C and DR Harris Milk) today.

Wednesday

Gillette HD Rocket w/Gillette swede blade
T3
AOS lemon cream
Charles Trywhitt aftershave balm
Old Spice cologne

The more I use the AOS cream the less I like it. For me there seems to be more cushion in AOS hard soap then the cream.

Wednesday Morning:

PreShave: Hot Shower/Noxzema Deep Cleansing Cream/Hot Towel
Razor: Gillette TECH (Ball End)
Blade: Swedish Gillette (Shave #3)
Brush: Kent/Altesse Pure Badger
Cream: TOBS Hypoallergenic
A/S: Thayer's Rose Petal Witch Hazel and Nivea Sensitive AS Balm
Cologne: Preferred Stock

Another great shave today although I had some irritation/in-growns on my neck left over from Monday's shave. I had to be extra careful not to re-agitate it but still got pretty good results. Hopefully it will all be healed up before Friday morning's go.

Progress/NOS WS LB
Sabrooney finest 1/2
L'Occitane cade soap
Lucky Tiger tonic
Tabac edt

This is the best shave I've had yet with the L'Occitane soap. I found it a little lacking on the protection fron previously, but apparently I got the lather right today. Nice scent, and nicely moisturising to boot.

Wednesday:

Gillette Model #58 & LB NOS Wilkinson blade
Trumpers Violet shave cream
T&H/Vulfix #2234

Weird, but the Vulfix seems to do a better job with this newer Trumepr cream than my denser brushes do. This lather was really A-okay.
