Parker 26c razor
Astra SP blade
Vie-Long Silver Tip brush
Palmolive Mentholated SC
Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
Skin Bracer A/S w/added menthol

Brrr.......nice cold shave this morning that I really enjoyed. The 26c is extremely mild and I have to do an extra pass to get the shave I want. I think it's milder than my Tech. At any rate, I'm ready to go. Now go enjoy your day folks.

Weber DLC razor
Asco blade
Shave Revolution Evo brush
Proraso Blue SC
Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
CO Bigelow 1585 cologne

Nice shave to start a Thursday. Hadn't used an Asco blade for awhile and sorry I haven't. Smooth, close and comfortable. The Proraso Blue worked well but I really don't like the scent at all. It goes back on the shelf, way in the back. Now go enjoy your day folks.
