Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Williams Mug Soap Challenge: Day 33

Another rushed but fantastic shave this morning. Incredible lather built with the Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements "The Peregrino" synth for two passes (plus touch-up) with the '61 Gillette Fatboy and I finished with a splash of Quinn's Pink Grapefruit & Orange Rind witch hazel, followed by "Layrite No.9" aftershave lotion, a dusting of Clubman talc and Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements "Atomic Age Bay Rum" EdP.

Hope you have a great day. :)
