Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Great shave this morning! Returned to local soap makers, Soap Commander and their excellent "Cheer" LE shave soap. Fantastic scent with excellent lather built with the Paladin "Falstaff" 2-Band Select Badger brush for two passes (plus touch-up) with the '49 Gillette Executive and I finished with a splash of Quinn's Pink Grapefruit & Orange Rind witch hazel, followed by Pitralon "Classic" aftershave lotion, followed by a dusting of Clubman talc and a spray of Rogue Perfumery "Bon Monsieur" EdT.

Hope you have a great day. :)
