Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Great shave this morning. Returned Mitchell's Wool Fat today. Fantastic lather built with the Paladin "Falstaff" 2-band badger brush for two passes (plus touch-up) with the Fatboy and I finished with Lustray "Spice" after shave splash.

Hope you have a great day. :)

Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Great shave this morning. My order of Frank's new "Tortola" shave soap arrived yesterday so, of course I had to use it today. Fantastic lather built with the Wild West Brushworks "REM Cycle" ST badger brush for two passes (plus touch-up) with the Rockwell 6S and I finished with the matching skin food splash and Barberry Coast "Souks of Morocco" EdP cologne.

Hope you have a great day. :)
