Saturday Shave
RAZOR: Yaqi Thalia 316 Stainless Steel Elite Molten Metal Resin
BLADE: Personna Lab Blue
BRUSH: AP Shave Co. 24mm APLuxury Mixed Badger/Boar
LATHER: D.R. Harris Arlington Shaving Soap
POST: Floid Suave Aftershave Splash
 
Got a 20-day free trial with Image Shack. Then it's $18.99 per year (50% Off Special). I figure that $18.99 is nothing compared to what I spend on shaving hardware/software in a year, especially if it works!
