A beautiful lather from this soap together with the matching balm smells so wonderful.

Rich Man shaving brush with an UltraLUX knot

Vetiver, oakmoss, black pepper, cocoa, labdanum, and cedar to produce a deep, cold scent suited to the chilly, bitter days of late October. Gloomy, rich, and perversely elegant, Hallows is a reminder of why men once feared the dark.266D6BA4-0DC2-4ACA-B2CF-CB51CFCB6946.jpeg

Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Another great shave to get the day started. Returned to Proraso and their "Nourishing" (aka Red) shave cream and AS. Wonderful scent and incredibly slick lather built with the Wild West Brushworks "Belfour" Sweet Spot Badger brush for two passes (+ touch-up) with the Mamba 70 and I finished with the matching splash & Arden Men "Sandalwood" EdC.

Hope you have a wonderful day. :)

Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Another great shave this morning. Went with Phoenix Shaving and their "Phoenix Lights" soap and splash. Wonderful scent with notes of citrus, grapefruit, jasmine, woods, amber, musk, tobacco & oakmoss. Excellent lather from the CK-6 base built with the Rich Man Shaving ST badger brush for two passes (+ touch-up) with the '69 Gillette Super-109 and I finished with the matching after shave splash.

Hope you have a wonderful day. :)
