Eleven Shaving Sicilian Lemon
Brush by Grizzly Bay
Yaqi Harlequin Stainless Steel
Brand new packaging, brand new alcohol free facial toner, fantastic Julien base!
From the Eleven website:
Julien base:
After a dozen or so formula changes, I settled on what I think is a soap base to rival any other. It lathers incredibly easily, can handle a LOT of water, is extremely slick and provides plenty of protection.
Sicilian Lemon: As the saying goes - “lemons are not real lemons unless they are Sicilian”.

Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.
Great shave this morning. Went back to Geo F. Trumper and their excellent "Spanish Leather" shave cream and splash. Wonderful "soapy leather" scent and super slick lather built with the Wild West Brushworks "Midnight Chip" Sweet Spot badger brush. Two passes (+ touch-up) with the '61 Gillette Fatboy and I finished with the matching AS and EdC.
Hope you have a wonderful day.

Soap & Aftershave PAA Al Fin + A&E Kaizen
Brush Yaqi 26mm Rainbow
Razor Wade & Butcher
Superb lather qualities from this soap but very lightly scented.
Enjoyed a great shave with this hefty wedge razor removing 3 days of growth. This razor's edge was refreshed on the full diamond balsa progression with tape and continuing to the HBA, resulting in a smoother and keener shave...

At first I thought it said Dinks and Dave’s, which still makes sense. Dual income no kids and Dave’s
What’s the scent on this one?
