Blade: Rapira SuperStainless
Brush: Stirling Fan Knot Badger
Soap: Pacific Shaving Co. Caffeinated Shaving Cream

A nice, relaxing shave, after a long day. I wanted to give this a try, again, after realizing how hard the water, here, is. It did okay. Next time, though, I am going to use some bottled water. Happy Monday, and, Happy Shaving #MentholMonday

Shave of the Day: Tuesday Afternoon, 26 September 2017

Proraso Pre-Shave Cream
Mehaz Safety Razor
Rapira Super Stainless Razor Blade
Omega Puro Tasso Badger Hair Brush
Arko Men Cool Shaving Cream
Arko Men Cool Aftershave Balm

Okay, this was a great shave, until the end. Arko Men Cool Aftershave Balm is quite burning. It ranges from a slight sting, to outright pain. I had been wanting, to make some room, in the bathroom, for other products, so no big deal. It was hot, today, outside. This inspired me, to perform a CWS, with bottled water. I did the same thing, this morning. I recommend this, to all who have extra hard water. Happy Tuesday, and, Happy Shaving!
