Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Great shave to start the day. First use of the Uncle Jon's "Surf & Sand" soap. Super slick, thick and cushioning lather with excellent slip but I was a little disappointed with the scent. Very "beachy" yes, but I was hoping for something more old school suntan lotion. Looking for a little more coconut / tropical vibe. But, as stated, excellent lather for two passes (+ touch-up) with the 60's "Psycho Tech" and I finished with some Clubman Reserve "Tequila Tease" after shave splash and some Prada "Luna Rossa" EdT.

Hope you have a great day. :)

Lovely creamy slick soap & together with the matching balm...the scent is nice and long-lasting...
Beautiful shave with this excellent razor with a diamond balsa edge. Hmmm...some razors perform better with the ark and some, better with the diamond balsa...so interesting!
