Away in MEL for work so usual travel kit shave. The hotel room though -

Doing my OCD-ish head in! Breakfast? Glad you asked ...

Poached eggs on sourdough with avocado and feta according to the menu. Well that is true I suppose ...

Where are you shouting us lunch?

 

[Maxime D.]

Schick Krona
Gillette Super Stainless (Tchek Rep) @ 7

With the hot weather in Sydney thought it time for FaceFat minted lime.
Lord super stainless green
Feather AS D2
Yaqi cola plisson synth
Face Fat minted lime
Nivea post shave balm
ck one summer

 

[Razor Burn]

What season is Trismegistus suited to? I originally thought autumn or winter, but then sometimes I think more summer. What do you think works best having paired with a very summery aftershave?

I'm completely out of the loop when it comes to scents/seasons and decided on this soap as its a great performer and has a pleasant scent. I was originally thinking to pair it with some Old Spice but went with Bombora as its not too over powering, although more a summery scent. Not ideal but still happy with the result plus the weathers warming up nicely so why not

Thanks - in that case... Experimentation is needed

Finished off the Crown King - Lo Haiku last night.

Omega Boar

With the warmer weather the Festivus was the perfect way to end the shave.

Shower
Merkur 1904
Personna Lab Blue
Trumpers Rose Cream

This cream really is a lot better with a badger for some reason.

I was a bit bo(a)red today and got the piggy out - it has been more than 3 years, since I last got it out and I don't think I will get bo(a)red again anytime soon

The shave itself was perfect - just love this razor!

I hope you all have a fantastic Friday ​
