Maybe it’s the French brandy

Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.
Williams Mug Soap Challenge: Day 37
Another fantastic shave this morning. Great lather as usual, built with the Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements "The Star-Craft" synth for two passes (plus touch-up) with the '56 Gillette Super Speed and I finished with a splash of Quinn's Pink Grapefruit & Orange Rind witch hazel, followed by Ogallala "Bay Rum, Sage & Cedar" aftershave splash, and a dusting of Clubman talc.
Hope you have a great day.
