Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Great shave this morning! Been a while since my last bay rum shave so I remedied that this morning, going with Phoenix Shavings "Pineapple Bay Rum". Great lather built with the new Rich Man Shaving brush for two passes (+touch-up) and I finished with the matching splash and EdP.

Hope you have a great day. :)

Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Great shave today.. Went back to Eleven Shaving and their "Sicilian Lemon" soap and splash. Nice, bright, tart lemon scent which is perfect for summer! The lather was excellent as well, thick and cushioning with excellent slip. Two passes (+ touch-up) with the 60's "Psycho Tech" and I finished with the matching after shave splash and Calvin Klein "CK One" EdT.

Hope you have a great day. :)

SOLID! I've never used Nivea FRESH KICK! What was your source for the Fresh kick?? Looking online, ebay seems like the best bet.

Nice enough lather from the soap. The super nice soft brush is the star today! The splash is best for a hot humid day.
The shave with this razor after another session on the HBA was ok enough but could be better yet...

Good morning Cadre! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Great end-of-the-workweek shave today! New soap from Abbate Y La Mantia, "Neroli Siciliano" arrived so I had to use it this morning. Fantastic soap and scent! Nice, soothing citrus floral notes and excellent lather whipped up with the Zenith "Chubby Scrubby" boar. Two passes (+ touch-up) with the EJ 3ONE6 and I finished with some AdP "Colonia" AS & EdC.

Hope you have a wonderful day. :)
