Friday 6-24-16 Taylor's Sandalwood shaving cream. Great fragrance, slightly different than the soap.

Vintage Old Spice shaving soap but I poked some holes in it put some Old Spice aftershave in and wow what a difference in scent. Before it smelled a little stale but now it's great.

Proraso the past couple of days -- it's wicked humid hot here in Ottawa at the moment and I love the cooling effect -- even though we have AC.

Ran with MWF since the weekend. Took today and yesterday off as I am down with a sore throat/upper respiratory infection thing settling in and I am lazy as a result.

I pulled out my old tub of Trumper's Violet cream today It had firmed up a bit over months so I dribbled in a few drops of warm water and stirred it with a popsicle stick. Now its good as new. I'm going to use it up before it can dry out again. Its a great cream if one can stand the color.
Best regards,

Basil

Finished the tub of Trumper's Violet this morning. Got over a month of daily shaves from the tub after rehydrating it with some warm water. Now I'm going to work on a tub of T&H West Indian Limes that has been neglected for awhile.
Best regards,

Basil

I'll be using the Mike's Natural Lime soap - tallow of course - for the foreseeable future, as I endeavor to use up some soaps from start to finish, instead of chaotically jumping around from one to the other without a plan. I enthusiastically work the brush on the soap for 15 seconds before building the lather on my face.
