There and Back Again, A Wet-Shaver's Tale

Lol he was all over the place. He would only listen to ballads by Ozzie, and as soon as the singing started he would restart the song. I got to hear the intro to Road to Nowhere about 30 times.
Yesterday's shave:
Razor: Feather SS
Blade: ProGuard
Brush: Black Walnut tuxedo
Soap: B&M Cheshire
Aftershave: Paladin balm
EDT: Kenneth Cole Black
A nice, three pass BBS with an amazing scented soap. A few sprays of Black to finish things off and I was good to go.
Todays shave:
Razor: Feather SS
Blade: ProGuard
Brush: Black Walnut tuxedo
Soap: B&M Latha Limon
Aftershave: Paladin balm
EDT: Versace Pour Homme
It was a sad day when Barrister & Mann's Latha line was discontinued. Limon was my favorite out of all of them, and I'm glad I still have plenty left. It's a great citrus and rose scent, simple but uplifting, and performs great. A three pass BBS with the Feather, a bit of Paladin Balm and a few sprays of Versace PH to finish it off. This was one of my go-to frags last summer, and probably will be again this year.
For anyone that hasn't checked it out I'm holding a brush PIF until Saturday, which can be found here.
Thanks for reading, and have a blessed Resurrection Day!

Wow I have never seen the Latha Limon. Sounds like a pretty interesting scent combo. I also did not know that Paladin made aftershave balms too. Learning all sorts of new things today! Have a Happy Easter!

You are a great sport Dave and very generous!I don’t have one of Eric’s brushes yet, so I am hopeful also.

I hope everyone that gets one that it's their first. They are some lookers for sure. Best wishes to you both !!

I just want to make sure everyone knows about it. I’d hate for anyone to give up their chance to win without even knowing what is on the table!
The Latha line was discontinued a couple years ago, I think.
Paladin had a short stint where they offered shave soap and balm. They had a clearance sale and I got some soap and a couple bottles of balm for a song. It’s unscented, which works great for pairing with any frag, and is about on par with Lisa’s elixir in quality. If there is any still available, which is unlikely, I’d highly recommend it.

@MilkCrate @Patelliott @Smattayu No need to feel sorry for me. I have a few and no don't will get more down the road. Eric does beautiful work. Pink on the left is the spousal units. It helps if you drag her into it

Lol I forgot that Dave was a repeat customer.
Thanks Chris!
It really is, and has great longevity for such a citrus forward frag.
