Very nice soap! Light scent and a super lather...rich and slick!
Excellent shave with this blade paired with the razor. The blade is still crisply smooth and comfortable...no sign of tugging. 3passes without any issues for a dfs+ finish. The aftershaves were good...

Good morning Cadre! Hope you're having a great day.

More with the tropical theme today and with temps over 90° next week, they'll likely continue. Phoenix Shaving's "Coconut Bay with Lime". Creamy coconut, crisp lime and warm, spicy bay rum. Magical combination! 🧜‍♀️🦜🥥⚓🏝️

Have a great day. :)

Soap Stirling Executive Man
Brush Yaqi 24mm Purple Haze Mew Brown
Razor Yaqi Slant
Blade Persona X Series 11th use
Aftershaves Stirling Witchhazel Bergamot Lavender + Stirling Executive Man Splash
Excellent soap qualities. A very nice scent and rich creamy slick lather...super!
The shave with 1 of my most aggressive & rarely used razors turns out to be quite tamed and enjoyable all due to the great blade plus a shim. 3 fast, easy, smooth, and relatively comfortable passes for a dfs+ finish without any issues. The matching aftershave was just great!
