Tepid shower prep with Axe 3 in 1 wash.
The Axe body wash makes a nice break from the Old Spice Fiji.

I'm getting the hang of loading from the Arko soap. It sits proud of the lower half of the container so you just have to deal with some spillage. The lather tonight was pretty close to whipped cream stiff peaks. I cranked up the setting to 8 for the first pass. I relathered, dialed back to 6 for the second pass and then did a light touch up on the residual slickness. This time I did achieve BBS, even on my jaw line. I gave myself a quick splash of Brut and a light spray of Perry Ellis to add to the complexity.

A cup of tea and a Missouri Merchaum full of Captain Black classic put a nice finish to an evening shave.
