Hello Cadre! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Off work today for Good Friday but had some errands to run so later than usual post. Great shave though! Went back to Saponificio Varesino and "Manna de Sicilia" soap and splash. Fantastic lather from the soap built with the Semogoe SOC Premium Boar brush for two passes (+ touch-up) and I finished with the matching ASL and a couple of sprays of Creed "Himalaya".

Hope you have a great day. :)

Hello Cadre! Hope you're having a great weekend.

Great shave this morning. It's "The Masters" weekend in Augusta GA so I broke out the Denton Majik "Masters of the Green". Wonderful scent. Kinda similar to Creed GIT but not a full-on dupe. Wonderful lather built with the new RazoRock "Chubby" ST! Slick, thick, yogurt-like consistency with lots of cushion. Two passes (+ touch-up) and I finished with a splash of Pinaud Clubman ASL and and several sprays of Tom Ford "Beau de Jour" EdT.

Hope you have a great day. :)

The brush has a bit more scritch than I like, but it certainly builds lather well. The original 71-4 is one of the smoothest razors I have used, especially with the excellent old blade.

The little basket on the left is full of hard-boiled eggs which will be brought to the Holy Mass today to be blessed and they are traditionally eaten as starter in the Easter lunch.

I wish you all happy Easter and happy shaves!
