Quite like the scent of this soap, but it's left my face red so not sure my skin likes it? One small nick on my chin it's been a while since I've used my slant, it's so efficient.

After not drawing claret with a straight for a while and actually thinking to myself 'I haven't cut myself for ages', a moments lapse tonight brought forth the red stuff. Oh the irony.

Pre shave oil Art of Shaving + Castle Forbes Sandal-Cedarwood shaving cream + Vulfix 2234 Best + Weber Bulldog with Gillette New and Schick blade + Castle Forbes Sandal-Cedarwood balm

A good shave although I used too much oil and all was greasy... Anyway these Castle Forbes products are very good (specially the balm) but too expensive IMHO.

Cheers!
