Beautiful creamy and slick lather from this soap today. The scent is just awesome...
This shave with my oldest DE razor paired with the special blade was nothing but perfection. This razor can be cranky and blade choice makes a difference. 3 very smooth, comfortable, and crisply efficient passes gave me a bbs result without any issues. The blade is good! The aftershaves were terrific as well with my wife giving me extra kisses đź’‹ prior to sending me off to work.

Good morning Cadre! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Fantastic shave this morning. Fantastic scent and lather from the Barrister's soap. Better overall shave too after adjusting my technique a little with the "B" plate on the Karve. Three passes for a DFS+ result and I finished with some European Brut after shave and a spray of Brut Special Reserve cologne.

Hope you have a wonderful day. :)

I really enjoy that soap and brush both but I don't think I've used them together yet. I should. Thanks for your posts.

Nice soap scent! The lather is creamy and slick enough...
This shave with both Vintage razor and blade was interesting. The blade did not feel as smooth unless riding the cap but it is surprisingly efficient. 3passes for a bbs/dfs finish with some red tiny spots. Good aftershaves.
