My Latest Shaving Regime (As My Skin Seems To Get More Sensitive With Old Age).

I am convinced that the skin on my face HAS TO be getting MORE SENSITIVE as I get older. Yes, I do try to take care of it. {Some might even claim pamper. I am big into keeping my face hydrated.} But, it doesn’t help. Shaving is becoming an AGONY.

I HATE shaving, I really do. Always have. (Though I had a goatee in my early 20s) I refuse to have a beard. I dread having to shave! For much of my adult life, until I was well into my 60s I used to shave everyday. Then, I gave up. I try to just shave every 3 days — unless I am going out. I still will not go anywhere important WITHOUT shaving. Old habits die hard.

I am CONTINUALLY looking for a new ‘silver bullet’. I have the latest ‘Gillette‘ & the top-end ‘Braun’ electric razor. I also try all sorts of lotions. Still never happy.

A few weeks ago I again scoured Amazon. I found the ABOVE two products — Shave BUTTER & aftershave DEW. Sounded interesting. Both claim to be for ‘sensitive skin’. That is sure what I have.

So, I ordered them. I have been using them (exclusively) for the last 3 weeks. They seem to help. I LIKE THEM. The butter is nice. GREAT Mango smell. The mist sure is soothing.

So, I wanted to SHARE with you. Worth trying. I sure endorse them, both.

Did You Buy ‘NVDA’ During Yesterday Morning’s Brief Dip? {Smile}

Click to ENLARGE. From my ‘Fidelity’ account.

You, obviously, should have. SMILE.

Did YOU (really) think that NVDA will go down RIGHT in midst of their ‘Developer Conference’ when they were making all sorts of groundbreaking announcements?

As you can see I have been ADDING to my NVDA stake ALL year. I had to (alas) sell some NVDA in mid-February due to an call option play. I had owned that tranche of NVDA for over 8 years. So, it wasn’t too painful to let them go. I just had to build BACK my position. And I have been doing that. I have NVDA in three accounts — my main, my (SEP-)IRA and in my youngest daughters account. She has made out like a bandit.

I have been in SEMIS for over 12-years — with NVDA my bedrock holding.

I have been ramping up on SEMIs over the last 12 months. I am doing OK.

SMILE.

I like SEMIs. I started buying NVDA years ago because I was a big fan of their video cards & had been using them for over 22 years.

Buy SEMIs (though it is kind of getting late).
