Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Busy day out running errands with the wife but the day started with a great shave. Been a very long time since I last used "The Dead Sea" soap & splash from RazoRock so I remedied that today. Performance wise, this has always been my favorite soap from them. Always great lather with excellent slip and cushion and the post shave face feel is so nice. Nice albeit light scent, very spicy & earthy with the rosemary, saffron and cannabis but I never have been able to detect any lemon or sandalwood. Two passes (+ touch-up) with the RazoRock Game Changer .68-P and I finished with the matching splash.

Hope you have a great day. :)
