April Soap/Cream Themes!

Remember Ladies and Gents! We change up themes next week! And since I don't know how many days there are in April...lets just run this through May 4th! May 5th can be a Cinco de Mayo day and @HandleBarberDave can post a shave with his famous enchilada soap and aftershave! 🤪 That or it can be a free day!
Actually on 2nd Thought CHALLENGE ACCEPTED!!! I will shav with Enchilada Soap and Enchilada Aftershave and record it!!!
 
Sorry guys that I have been absent. I won't rehash it here but if you interested in why I wasn't here...head on over to my journal. I don't have pics but I will try to remedy that later.

On Monday my shave consisted of:

Razor: Merkur Progress
Blade: Ladas (New Blade)
Soap/Cream: Sudsy Soapery in collaboration with Chatillon Lux - Lemon Rose Chypre
Brush: Stirling Synthetic with Pro Handle
Penultimate Aftershave: Thayers Coconut Witch Hazel
The Ultimate Aftershave: Sudsy Soapery in collaboration with Chatillon Lux - Lemon Rose Chypre


And Today's shave:

Razor: Merkur Progress
Blade: Ladas (2nd Shave)
Soap/Cream: Declaration Grooming (with Icarus base) in collaboration with Chatillon Lux - Vide Poche
Brush: Stirling Synthetic with Pro Handle
Penultimate Aftershave: Thayers Coconut Witch Hazel
The Ultimate Aftershave: Chatillon Lux - Vide Poche


Both soaps have a nice floral component. But the Vide Poche...oh man that is some good stuff! Geranium, Lavender, Honeysuckle, and Freesia!
 
Hey it has White Patchouli in it so it must be floral right ?

Sorry guys...didn't get to participate as much as I wanted this week. Work got the best of me Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. Started to not feel well on Wednesday and Thursday morning was really bad off. Starting to get over the hump...but work and being sick took me away from my shaves. Some great ones in here though. I might have to revisit this in few months or so.
