Tuesday NOvember 19

No Repeat (mostly) NOvember. No repeats so far except for scuttle, blades, and alum. When I first heard of the "new" Gillette 3 piece DE razor, I wasn't interested. I thought on it some and said why not so I bought 2 - one for me and one for my son.

Bowl/Scuttle - GP12
Soap - Tabac
Brush - Simpson Duke 3
Blade - Gillette Platinum (7)
Razor - New Gillette DE
Post Shave - OSMA Pierre alum, Em's Place Minty Menthol A/S

Shave rating 4.5 of 5

The razor is ok, I have plenty of better razors to choose from. A little more blade feel than I thought there would be. Got a 2 pass DFS shave. First time using Tabac and, wow, is this a good soap. Lathered up really quick. A/S has no scent. The alum was quiet.

Happy NOvember and great shaves everyone.

The autumn season has been pleasant, but changes in nature have been evident for a while, now. Time to say goodbye to the last of some flowers and welcome the increasing darkness. Dama de Noche — Cestrum nocturnum. A thing of beauty by Eufros.

Beautiful photo, Clint, and the best one I have seen! I really enjoy that lovely brush. 

Thank you Celestino. You are too kind.
