Terrific lather from this soap! An invigorating scent, cooling sensation, creamy and slick qualities...love it!
A very good shave with the razor and blade pairing! Very smooth and comfortable in 3passes for a dolphin smooth finish without any issues. Aftershaves were terrific as well!

Good morning Cadre! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Fantastic shave today. First time in a long time I didn't shave in the shower. It was nice, but I still prefer a shower shave. I of course had to break in the new "Candy Corn" brush from Wild West Brushworks. Also went with a soap I hadn't used since earlier this year, Barrister and Mann's "The Full Measure of Man". Great soap and great fall scent. The Mousse de Saxe really shines through in this soap. Three passes and I finished with a splash of @Dragonsbeard skin food splash (Frank, when's that soap gonna make a return???) and a spray of Creed "Royal Oud".

Hope you have a wonderful day. :)

PAA Prismatic/Twin Treet Falcon, Proraso. The stock Prismatic plate is a milder shave than my swaps but it's fabulously smooth with the twin Falcons and embarrasses an Aristocrat (or pick your favorite smoothie) with its efficiency. Second pass with fresh BIC about as smooth, no stubble prisoners. Two Feathers did not feel as right. In this configuration the Prismatic is right up there with the Vib'Raz and Shake Sharp in the smiles per pass contest.

This is a wonderful soap! A very nice aquamarine scent, the lather is really creamy and very slick...
Excellent shave with the razor paired with this blade! Super laid-back easy, smooth and good efficiency in 3passes for a bbs finish. Good razor and good blade! Aftershaves were awesome as well!
