Good job Tod!
What do you think of Lisa's aftershave?
It’s good. It has a pump on the bottle and I go with 2 squirts. It goes on feeling thick but absorbs quickly.
That's what I've found. Slow absorption is my only complaint with other balms. I don't want to feel sticky after application, even for a few minutes.

The Process-
Early morning shave today and for this shave Stirling Executive Man got the nod. I had a sample of the soap and AS, but managed to pick up a full tub of the soap in a trade. As you know, I am a big Stirling fan and I am digging this scent. Grabbed the Vulfix brush, just because, and I didn't hate it. The brush did a bang up job and whipped up a nice lather. I stayed with my typical 30 second load time and whipped up a really nice lather with a great scent.
20 laps on cloth, along with 50 laps on leather and I was ready for business. I went with my standard three passes of WTG, XTG and ATG with no drama to report. That was a great shave! The scent stayed with me the entire shave and the performance of the soap was fantastic. A really enjoyable shave and I am BBS for the win! I finished the shave up with a post shave lather while I cleaned shave gear.
Wrapped the everything up with a quick rinse and pat dry. A healthy splash of the AS and everything was right as rain! Yes ... yes it was. I am really digging this scent. Once this sample is done I will have to buy a bottle of this AS. I am clean shave and smelling awesome ... Life is good!
Home Front-
Just waiting
I am not a balm guy either. I find that they always make me feel like I am suffocating my skin or just make me sweat profusely! I really like the Ariana & Evans Post Shave Elixir No. 3 because it goes on and absorbs quickly. It really ads a lot of moisturizing effect that last all day long to your face. I have a bottle of Lisa's Post Shave Elixir coming in the mail tomorrow and am really interested in seeing how the two compare.
A little late...but my heart goes out to you Tim.

How's momma doing Tim?
She is hanging in there. This new doc renewed one of the scripts from the ER doc. She also prescribed something else to try and shrink the stone so it will pass. The doc wants to try that instead of going after it.

I always do apple cider vinegar shots to cut the edges to make it easier. Hope she gets relief soon.
Thanks Dave! I’ll tell her about the ACV.
Thanks @dangerousdon!
