Good morning. Monday:

Jaggerooney w/IP, #1
Semogue LE boar
Tabac
Thayer's lavender witch hazel
TGR Standard A/S Balm
Chanel Eau de Cologne (sample)*

As the day has gone on I can say that the Chanel is not for me. The drydown is harsh and acrid. Blech!

Razor: D.R. Harris 3 Piece "Chatsworth"
Blade: Super Iridium
Brush: Simfix Grosvenor LE
Pre-Shave: Musgo Real Glyce Lime
Soap: D.R. Harris Almond Shave Stick
A/S: TOBS Shaving Shop

The D.R. Harris shave sticks are a treat to use. Harder than many of the shave sticks, I barely notice a dent after rubbing the stick against my beard yet it produces mounds of lather. Go figure! I enjoyed another excellent shave and the Shaving Shop was a nice change of pace.

Monday:

Razor: Merkur HD
Blade: Iridium (1st)
Cream: Cremo Cream
A/S: Speick
A/S balm: AOS Unscented

A so-so shave. A lot of pulling on the first pass, then nice and slick on the second. Had to shave in the shower this morning so not the best conditions for me to focus. A lot of redness on one side of my neck. Ouch!
