Brush: RazorRock 400 Noir SE
Soap: Extro Pirata
Pre: Proraso Blue
ASL: L'Oréal Skin Purifier
ASB: RSC
The most noticeable thing about this soap is its rich red colour. The protolather, which explodes from the soap the minute you point your brush at it, is a light pink before becoming a glossy slick white lather. The scent is really nice. I couldn't put my finger on it so I've copied the blurb which I found myself nodding along to:
Extro Pirata Shaving Cream is made with royal jelly, calendula oil, and real paprika extract which gives the soap its vibrant red colour.
The frangrance is a fresh, spicy, traditional barbershop fragrance.
Head notes: Sicilian lemon, rosemary, green, bergamot.
Heart notes: fern, jasmine, cinnamon, basil.
Bottom notes: sandalwood, cedar wood, patchouli, amber
The residual slickness was again fine and my skin feels good. Must be that royal jelly. No peasant jelly for this gorgeous face!
I'm enjoying the audible feedback from the Blackbird. No weepers this time but I'm still dialling it in.
