Good morning Cadre! Hope you pleasant evening.

Great shave on which to end the workweek. Went with lime today as it's going to be another warm and humid day (storms moving in this evening). Great scent and lather from the Castle Forbes "Lime Essential Oil" shave cream built with the Rich Yuengel "Pit Viper" ST brush for two passes (+ touch-up) and I finished with a splash of ETHOS Grooming Essentials "Lime EO" Personal Blend skin food splash and a spray of Chanel "Bleu De Chanel" Parfum.

Hope you have a great day. :)

My favorite soap & splash.... whip up nicely by the brush into a creamy and slick lather!
One of my favorite vintage razors...today's shave with both blades was wonderful. The Polsilver is still good...smooth and crisp enough but the Gillette feels smoother and crispier. The result is the same on both sides..bbs finish...

The original AdP soap is my all-time favorite, and combined with the wonderful BBS-1/P74, it gave me my best shave in recent memory.
