Shave of the Day: Friday Night, 10 November 2017

preparation: Proraso Pre-Shave Cream
razor: Merkur 38C Safety Razor
blade: Derby Extra
lather: Artisan Made Shaving Bowl
brush: US Made Custom Finest Badger Hair Shaving Brush
shaving soap: Derby Menthol Shaving Cream
face wash: clean & clear
shaving tonic: Fine Classic Aftershave Green Vetiver
shaving balm: Proraso Liquid Cream Aftershave

Now, this was a good shave. Finally, Friday. This was nice, and, relaxing, and, I needed it. The weather has been horrible, the past few days. It had been humid, and, warm, but, today, all of a sudden, it was freezing. The strong wind, and, cold weather, really, did a number, on my face. I feel fantastic, now, that I have shaved. The good scent of mint filled the bathroom. Two passes, and, some light buffing, gave me a close, comfortable result. Most platinum coated blades feel scratchy, on my skin, but, this was a good one. These Derby Extra blades are nice, and, smooth. I splashed on some Green Vetiver, at the end. Green Vetiver is proven to attract women. It is an/a homage to/recreation of Guerlain Vetiver. It works. Women love it. I knew the weather was cold, and, would dry my face, so, I used some balm, as well. All in all, an excellent shave. Happy Friday, Happy Weekend, and, Happy Shaving!
