Another fantastic shave this morning. Returned to Martin De Candre and their excellent "Nature" shave soap. Light, soapy scent with phenomenal lather built with the Paladin PK-47 2-Band Select Badger brush for two passes (plus touch-up) with the '59 Gillette Fatboy and I finished with a splash of Quinn's Pink Grapefruit & Orange Rind witch hazel, followed by Chanel "Platinum Égoïste" aftershave lotion & EdT.
Hope you have a great day.
