17 June, 2024

Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

A rushed but extremely enjoyable shave today. Returned to the "Pablo Fiasco's Limoncello" shaving cream from Ariana & Evans. Great boozy, tart, lemony citrus scent with great lather built with the Simpson "Chubby" 2 Super Badger brush for two passes (plus touch-up) with the Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements "META-4" and I finished with ETHOS Grooming Essentials Personal Blend "Sicilian Lemon EO" skin food splash & 4711 EdC.

Hope you have a great day. :)

Shave of the Week Starting 6/17/2024

Weber DLC razor
Gillette 365 blade
PAA Amber Aerolite brush
VDH Fresh Eucalyptus SS
Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
Various A/S

Saw that VDH has a couple of new SS and thought I'd try them out. I have used VDH products previously and have had nice shaves with them. This one's a bit different as it didn't make lather as easily as the Luxury or Original but it did make a fine lather that worked well. I'll use this one for the week and report on it later. Initial thoughts are that it's nice and has a pleasant but mild scent. At any rate, mu face is happy. Now go enjoy yoiur day folks
