Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Fantastic shave this morning. Went back to ETHOS Grooming Essentials and Frank's excellent "Colonia" soap and splash. Great scent and lather built with the Riva Brushes Manchurian badger brush for two passes (+ touch-up) with the '56 Gillette Super Speed and I finished with the matching skin food splash and Acqua di Parma "Colonia" EdC.

Hope you have a great day. :)

This soap smells wonderfully of an aromatic cigarish scent and matched nicely with the splash. The lather was creamy and very slick too...Nice shave from this razor and blade pairing. 3 easy and smooth passes for a bbs-dfs finish...

Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Great shave this morning. Been a while since I last used "Mr. Taylor's" shave cream from TOBS so I remedied that today. Fantastic scent. Nice, fresh cologne-like fragrance and excellent lather built with the Simpson "Chubby" 2 Super Badger brush for two passes (+ touch-up) with the Rockwell 6S (plate 5) and I finished with Pinaud Clubman" after shave splash and Dana "Canoe" EdC.

Hope you have a great day. :)
