Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Great shave today. Returned to Saponificio Varesino and their "Manna di Sicilia" soap and ASL. Wonderful scent and great lather built with the Riva ST badger brush for two passes with the '49 Gillette Aristocrat and I finished with the matching splash.

Hope you have a great day.

Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

'Twas the day before Christmas, when all through the house..
The AC was running because I live in the south..

It feels like anything but Christmas here. Temps close to the 70's today with rising humidity and gusty winds. Also, we have rain moving in over night and continuing through most of the day tomorrow. So, instead of trying to force anything scent wise for my shave, I decided to go with lime. Should work better than some of the stronger, cooler-weather friendly seasonal scents. Wonderful scent from the Castle Forbes Lime cream and great lather built with the QED Select Manchurian badger brush for two passes with the '56 Gillette Super Speed and I finished with vintage Old Spice Fresh Lime ASL.

Hope you have a great day.
