Hello everyone! Hope you had pleasant evening.

Very good shave this morning. Got in my antique James Kent Old Foley scuttle/mug and loaded it with a puck of Geo. F. Trumper "Officer's and Gentlemen's" soap. Light but very nice scent and great lather built with the Semogue SOC premium boar brush for two passes with the '49 Gillette Aristocrat and I finished with Hemingway Accoutrements "Signature" after shave balm and EdP.

Hope you have a great day. :)

Hello everyone! Hope you had pleasant evening.

Excellent shave with which to close out the old year. Returned to Truefitt & Hill's "1805" shave cream and balm. Ordered a bottle of the balm with a gift card the missus got me for Christmas. Great scent and lather built with the Riva Manchurian badger brush for two passes with Karve Christopher Bradley razor and I finished with the matching after shave balm and Coty "Aspen" EdC.

Hope you have a great day. :)
