Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Williams Mug Soap Challenge: Day 1

The month couldn't have started off any better. Fantastic shave! No detectable scent from the soap, but fan-freakin-tastic lather built with the Semogue SOC Premium Boar brush for two passes (plus touch-up) with the '58 Gillette Super Speed, and I finished with a splash of Quinn's Pink Grapefruit & Orange Rind witch hazel, followed by Floris "No.89" aftershave lotion, a dusting of Clubman talc and Floris "No.89" EdT.

Hope you have a great day. :)

Williams / Semogue / Gillette / Wizamet / Quinn's / Clubman / Floris
