Hello everyone! Hope you're having a great weekend.
Great shave today. Returned to Hendrix Classics & Co. and their excellent "Citrus Bomb" soap, splash & EdP. This is one of the nicest (and strongest) citrus scents out there! With most soaps it's difficult to pick out individual notes. Not with this one. Grapefruit is very dominant, but I can easily pick out orange and what appears to be tangerine notes as well. Wonderful! Excellent lather built with the Riva Brushes Manchurian badger brush for two passes (plus touch-up) with the '58 Gillette Super Speed (my favorite) and I finished with the matching aftershave splash & EdP.
Hope you have a great day.

Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.
Skipped yesterday so today's shave was extra nice. Returned to ETHOS Grooming Essentials and their excellent "Nuage de Citron" soap & splash. Bright, tart citrus scent with excellent lather built with the Paladin El Dorado 2-Band badger brush for two passes (plus touch-up) with the RazoRock Game Changer and I finished with the matching skin food splash & ETHOS Grooming Essentials "Colonia" EdP.
Hope you have a great day.
