Razor Yaqi Brass
Blade Shark SS 23rd
Aftershaves Stirling Witchhazel Orange Chill + PAA Cavendish Splash
Top favourite soap in combination with the splash. Rich, creamy and slick lather with a heavenly scent, for me lah....
Today's razor is good but choice of blade is not. Managed 3passes without any issues but was really scrappy during atg for a ccs result. The matching aftershave was super...20220422_123030.jpg

Two and a half pass BBS. The Tr2 was smooth and efficient.
Then Rosie and I took a long walk around the former Medfield Insane Asylum and along a nearby trail.

Good morning Cadre! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Fantastic shave today. Went with Phoenix Shaving's "Good Vibrations" soap and splash. Scent Profile: Rich, late spring tree blossoms such as horse chestnut. With a distinct woodiness in there, sandalwood, mahogany & rosewood, a light vanilla muskiness, a pinch of rosemary, a soft lavender & amber talc underneath, and oakmoss holding it all together at the base. Three passes for a DFS+ result and I finished with a splash of the matching AS and a spray of the EdP.

Hope you have a wonderful day. :)
