Wednesday
Music: None
Razor: Merkur Progress set @ 2
Blade: Wilkinson Sword (1st use)
Brush: C&E Best Travel Brush
Soap: Floris of London Elite
After Shave: RealShaveCo Aftershave balm
Cologne: CK One
Crap shave, useless hotel plumbing could only serve tepid water. Got close enough in the end but needed 1 WTG, 2 XTG and 1 ATG passes plus blade buffing in numerous areas, I normally get as close a shave with one WTG and one XTG pass. "Only" 2 nicks wasn't too bad.
Wouldn't have bothered normally to try and get approaching bbs close but I have an important meeting today and wanted to feel good, it's not like I'm being judged on my shave but shaving has now become one of those things that, done well, sets my day up to a great start.
The Floris shave cream is from a tester I received and I really like it, great smell and the lather was good even with tepid water.

Wednesday
Interrupting my personal Elton John week to accentuate my Italian shave...
David Lee Roth - Just A Gigolo (not really an Italian song, but I just love that tune)
Progress/German Wilkinsons
Kent BK4
Valobra "butter"
Floid Italiano
The entire bathroom smells like marzipan, but the Valobra hasn't provided great shaves so far. Might have to use even more water than today.

Progress/Israeli
Sabrooney finest 1/2
Trumper's Sandalwood soap
Lucky Tiger Tonic
Knize Ten edt
I got the soap for xmas last year, and I'm only now beginning to see any signs of it dwindling. It's probably my most used lather delivery vector, so it's nice to know it lasts.
