Monday

Prep: Hot Shower

Soap: Coate’s Sandalwood Cream

Razor: 1954 Gillette Super Speed

Blade: Gillette 7 O’Clock Blue SP

Brush: Chesterfield/Carrington Synthetic 22mm x 49mm

Aftershave: Floid Blue-sample

WTG-XTG-ATG (adjusted angle for my beard a bit)

It was back to my Super Speed with the 7 O’Clock Blues for a few days. I tried my recently acquired Coate’s Sandalwood Cream this morning. I lathered it in my new “oversize” blue Old Spice Mug. It produced a think, cushioning lather in no time. I had a great, close, smooth, nick and burn free shave. I finished with my Floid Blue sample. Ready to work!
