Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Williams Mug Soap Challenge: Day 79

Skipped yesterday so today's shave was extra nice. Phenomenally thick and slick lather built with the Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements "Amber Aerolite" synth for three passes with the '56 Gillette "Gold Tip" and I finished with alum, Thayers Cucumber witch hazel, Guy Laroche "Drakkar Noir" aftershave lotion & EdT.

Hope you have a great day. :)
