Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Fantastic shave this morning. Overslept and nearly skipped today. That would have been a shame because today's shave is in the running for best of the week! Returned to TOBS "Lime Zest" cream with its tart, crisp scent and excellent lather built with the Brad Sears "Gus" 2-Band Select Badger brush for two passes (plus touch-up) with the Gillette Super Speed and I finished with a splash of Quinn's "Pink Grapefruit & Orange Rind" witch hazel toner, followed by vintage MEM "English Leather Lime" aftershave and Dana "English Leather" EdC.

Hope you have a great day. :)

Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Fantastic shave this morning. Returned to Martin de Candre and their excellent "Nature" shave soap. Nice, light, clean soapy scent with excellent lather built with the Wild West Brushworks "Samurai" Sweet Spot Badger brush for two passes (plus touch-up) with the Gillette Super Speed and I finished with a splash of Quinn's "Pink Grapefruit & Orange Rind" witch hazel toner, followed by vintage Avon "Spicy" aftershave splash and Amouage "Jubilation XXV" EdP.

Hope you have a great day. :)
