Greetings,

A new eclectic shave set up to start the weekend...

The HWF Lanolin Shaving Soap. (no.3) with Lavender & May Chang is another soap that I've infrequently added to my rotation which is a joy to use providing a slick protective lather. The zesty citrus scent from the May Chang is a wonderful addition to the Lanolin Soap recipe.

Everything in my shave set up worked together excellently resulting in a comfortable face & head shave with no errors to report.

Finishing the shave off a with a few small squirts of Ard Al Zafran Dirham Oud EDP to the chest and pulse points.

My face & precious swede are both feeling super smooth & smelling divine. ;)

Stay safe, and enjoy the start of the weekend ladies & gentlemen.:cool:

Chilled Saturday morning shave, Mrs has taken the little one to dance class so it was one of those rare moments of peace and quiet in the house. Wonderful finish with an excellent winter scent.

Hope everyone has a good'un.

Haslinger Honig Shaving Soap & Razorock 400 Butterscotch Plissoft Noir Synthetic
Leaf Twig & BIC Astor (1)
Coty Musk (Vintage) Aftershave

I say it every time I used it: Coty Musk is pretty much Jovan Musk, but with a pair. Sadly, this bottle is rapidly diminishing.

Smashing shave, as always with the Leaf, and the very sharp BIC Astor. I still have my first-shave enthusiasm for this razor, but also have that first-go thought that the handle really could be a lot better. The juice is well worth the squeeze, though ...
