Cold Water Rinse
Palmolive Shave Cream
Jayaruh #424 Synthetic
Unmentionable by Tom
Unmentionable Blade
CWR
Lustray Spice After Shave
The Palmolive Shave Cream lathered well with Jayaruh #424 Synthetic Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Unmentionable Razor by Tom set on 8 with an Unmentionable Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Lustray Spice After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

AS 2: Proraso Green Splash
Fragrance: n/a

Great shave. Blade at 9 shaves is needing more strokes I think but still giving smooth, close and irritation free shaves. The soap I'm calling done as it is not doing it for me quality wise and is near gone anyway. I wish I had this scent in a quality soap. Moving on to CFG Sherlock that survived the recent soap reduction sale as a complete set with splash and EDT to match. Enjoy your Sunday, it's back to the grind tomorrow !

Lustray Spice After Shave
I had an interesting shave today. At about 2:30 this morning I was aroused from sleep by an incredibly loud noise from the toilet when SWMBO flushed it. On investigation, the water coming from the toilet, faucets and all was mud brown. I called the water department and they confirmed that we were on a Water Advisory/Boil Water Alert since 9:30 the previous evening. We just did not get the notification. So this morning, I did my shave with 16.9 fl. oz. of bottled drinking water.

Two passes and touch ups with the Superior Lather Catcher Razor with a Personna GEM SS PTFE Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave.

On it.
And the verdict is...
Boar brushes, brass razors, and hard pucks ARE traditional wet shaving. Everything else is modern day fluff for the girly men.
