What Your Father Didn't Teach You About Shaving
Razor Giveaway #2
This week's razor giveaway from my den is a Parker 86R. It's a lightweight, long-handled, TTO razor. Parker no longer produces this razor but it's still available from some shaving vendors so I guess you'd call this "new old stock" (NOS). I've never used this razor--it's brand-new, still in the box.

Evening Out Facial Skin Tone In Older Men
As I’m headed for the far side of “middle age” I find myself wanting to take better care of my skin, especially my facial complexion. Old school wet shaving has helped but I’ve recently embarked on a project to even out my facial skin tone.
As I’ve discussed previously, I’ve been upgrading my grooming routine in addition to ‘proper’ wet shaving (I’ve also recently added tongue cleaning to my routine). And the results have been good: my skin feels softer for a longer time and fine wrinkles are filling in.
But I’m still unsatisfied with my skin tone–it’s just not as consistent and even as I’d like it to be. So I started to do some research.
