Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Great shave this morning! Got in my order of the vintage Avon shave soap yesterday so I used it this morning. I had read online that this soap was mediocre at best. However, I was able to whip up a very nice, slick lather with minimal effort. Not the greatest cushion but definitely usable. Lather quality reminded me a little of William's. I think next time I'll try a boar brush and see how the lather is. Two passes (plus touch-up) with the Rockwell 6S and I finished with Pinaud Clubman after shave lotion Caron "Le 3e Homme de Caron" EdT.

Hope you have a great day. :)

Lovely scent from this soap set. The lather is super creamy and slick!
Had a lovely shave too with this razor. The edge was buttery smooth and crisply keen...

Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Great shave this morning! Returned to Martin de Candre and their excellent "Rose" shave soap. Beautiful scent and extremely thick and slick lather built with the Rich Yuengel "Abalone" ST badger brush. Two passes (plus touch-up) with the Tatara Masamune DE and I finished with Geo. F. Trumper "Coral" skin food and Domenico Caraceni 1913 EdP.

Hope you have a great day. :)
