Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Late post. Been in a retirement seminar all day. Useful info, but oh, so boring. 🥱

Great shave to begin the day however. Returned to TOBS and their excellent "Mr. Taylor's" cream. Wonderful scent and slick lather built with the Rich Yuengel "Voodoo King" HD HMW badger brush for two passes (+ touch-up) with the '61 Gillette Fatboy and I finished with Pinaud Clubman after shave lotion.


Hope you have a wonderful day. :)
