Same shave as a few days back and same super smooth baby bottom results.

And on the subject of babes and derrieres. Bottoms up chaps.
Be safe and well you boss shavers.

A band who should have you go what the f**k? They did me first time I heard them

Just what the Doctor ordered; a very tough day yesterday - early this morning, ring of the door bell - ninja like approach so that SWMBO did not stir from her slumner to rescue the delivery of Signature Soaps. Today's shave was my first run out with a Signature Soap.

The Cedarwood and Peppermint was sublime: great glide; protection and afterskin feel - very, very enjoyable. Many thanks to @BrianH for his superb customer service.

A 2 pass shave WTG and XTG - DFS+/BBS- with no issues to report - today's shave set me up for the day.

I hope that everyone is safe and well.

All the best,

Chris

Glad you liked it Chris. Regards Brian

Vulfix 404-mixed
Vitos Super Red
ER 1924
Gem S/S [ 2 ]
GB Grey Flannel

I notice that I probably use the inexpensive Vitos more than most other soaps these days, always when carrying out first Shaves with a new Razor. Just how good it is was illustrated today, when the Shave was so smooth that I had to check the blade was correctly seated. Well it was and the rest of the Shave was ultra smooth and the finish excellent all round. IMHO the performance of the 1924 is enhanced by the addition of this S//S Handle, and today with the Vitos was quite amazing.

Brian, thanks again; I really enjoy artisan soaps/creams - its great to have the opportunity to try these; when I think of all the years I bought glup in a can from Boots or the supermarket.

All the best,

Chris

We've all been there. I used them and cartridge razors before I started making shaving soaps. So much better for skin and more economical (until you start collecting shave soaps, razors, brushes, splashes etc!)
