SOTD December 2024

20 December, 2024

Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Yet again, today's shave beat out yesterday's for best of the week (thus far). Returned to CBL Soaps and their excellent "Russian Tea" soap and tonic. Fantastic scent and excellent lather created with the Paladin "Somerset" 2-Band Select Badger brush for two passes (plus touch-up) with the '56 Gillette "Gold Tip" and I finished with a splash of Quinn's Pink Grapefruit & Orange Rind witch hazel, followed by the matching aftershave tonic and Viktor & Rolf "Spicebomb" EdT.

Hope you have a great day. :)
