Mühle Silvertip Fibre brush
Lucky Seven Mahogany soap
Jagger Barley Chrome razor
Personna Lab Prep shave #5
Dr. Galen Herbal Skin Tonic

I had been using Polsilvers for about 8 months prior to this week, and it took a couple of days for me to adjust to the Personna, but I find it just as sharp or nearly so, only slightly less smooth and forgiving than the Polsilver. Very workable. Still, I think ordering more Polsilvers may be in order.
Regards,
Tim

THURSDAY A.M.
PRE SHAVE: Clinique Skin Supplies for Men Liquid Face Wash, ex-strength
SHAVE SOAP: MWF
SHAVE BRUSH : Somerset Simpson Duke 3, Best
RAZOR/BLADE: Gem JR, with Gem SS PTFE SE (3)
POST SHAVE: Crystal alum deo stick as astringent ... Clubman Eau de Portugal Tonic as aftershave .... Simpson ASB
Fortunately, have always been able to get excellent lather from MWF and today's was particularly good. The Gem JR is a
neat little razor and it delivers a fine, nifty shave. The weak link, if any, in today's regimen was the Simpson ASB... it really
is only a so-so product and at a fairly hefty price, and considering it's from a venerable company, the disappointing perform-
ance is particularly galling.
Enjoying wet shaving, again.

Friday:

Neutrogena Men Facial Wash
#6 Horsehair
Super Speed/Rapira day 5
Yeti Snot SS
444 AS Balm
Alcolado Glacial Menthol Splash
Oscar de la Renta Pour Lui EdT

If this set-up doesn't show that I'm a menthol freak, nothing will. lollllllll Another frigidly-wonderful Cracky Wacky Ticky Tacky Face-Freezing Shave which I loved so much. An interesting thing happened - while I was lathering up with the Yeti Snot soap for my first pass, I got a sneezing fit and my eyes started tearing. The same thing happened on Monday while I was using the Glacial soap so this proves that both these soaps are equally cold. The 444 balm and the Penguin felt awesome afterwards!

Have a great weekend, folks!
