* 1956 Gillette Red Tip Superspeed DE Razor

* Personna Hospital Use DE Razor Blade (2nd Shave)

* Earth Science Azulene Moisturizing Shave Cream (brushless)

Day #2 on my razor blade -- just as good as Day #1. Washed and hydrated face in the shower. Left face wet, then applied the Azulene brushless, which is one of my favorites. The Red Tip / Hospital Use combination is stellar. All in all, an outstanding shave.

Fun with scents!

GEM Clog Pruf
Cade Plisson Synth
MdC -- Signature (14)
Aqua Velva
Krampert's Finest Bay Rum

As I finished my shave and I was enjoying the fleeting fragrance of MdC two words popped into my head; Aqua Velva. I thought it was odd but figured why not as it's been a long time since I've used it. I was immediately impressed with how I liked the combo.

I then finished cleaning up my gear and habitually started putting on my Krampert's. Again, I was quite surprised at how well it all seemed to mesh together.

Wednesday morning:

Pre shave: 3P pre shave cream
Stirling Glacial Obsidian soap
WD synthetic brush

Lots of menthol this morning in the pre shave, the soap and the A/S. A very refreshing, cool shave. Nice for south Texas in August. :)
