Wednesday night shave
Canadian Shick E
B20 blade
Gillette canned goo
Nivea AS balm
Was getting itchy after a weeks growth and no time to shave but had to clean up the mug. Yes I used the "goo" which goes against my grain but was just looking for something to lube the beard up. The blade was on its last shave after unknown uses but I powered through and got the job done . A nice coat of refreshing Nivea balm to cool the burn. Now I look respectable once again!!

Razor: Schick Imperial Set, "E" Injector
Blade: sChick
Brush: Sorrentino Orange Crush/Cashmere
Soap: ETHOS Dragonsbeard
AS 1: Humphrey's Alcoholado Maravilla 70
AS 2: ETHOS Dragonsbeard Skin Food Splash
Fragrance: ETHOS Dragonsbeard EDP
Consecutive Daily Shaves - # 1177
So I got this razor in a recent Lot Purchase hoping for another razor but the one I hunted ended up being a duplicate rather than a different model, so that one has been sold now. This though was an unexpected bonus in the Lot and I'm happy to add another E Injector to the stable in the Imperial Set Case. Not impossible to find but rarer than most cased examples. These were generally gifts apparently as most have a name engraved into the handle. Thanks "Zane Prize" for keeping this one in great shape. Off to a long work day today but will have tomorrow off to burn the hillside down as another slight dusting of snow is expected. Have a great day everyone !

Thursday's Shave
Cold Water Rinse
Palmolive Shave Cream
Jayaruh #41 Two-band badger
AutoStrop A2
Personna GEM SS PTFE
CWR
Aqua Velva Musk AS
The Palmolive Shave Cream lathered well with the Jayaruh #41 Two-band Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the AutoStrop A2 Razor with a Personna GEM SS PTFE Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Aqua Velva Musk AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Today is my 21 year wedding anniversary. I went with this beautiful Schick G with custom handle for a great shave. The Zenith Boar whippes up lather wonderfully and Cella Organic is fantastic. And Aqua Velva is always an excellent choice. Especially since my wife likes the scent. We are going to go out to dinner tomorrow at my friend's restaurant to celebrate our anniversary.

Thank you. There were a lot of rough spots in our 21 years, mostly related to my long battle with depression. Thankfully I have been doing much much better with that, and our marriage has been doing very well for the past four or five years.
