Post: WK Vor V Tonic & Balm

Good shave this morning, wasn't sure what to expect from the Vor V scent but I really like it. Shame I couldn't get my hands on the alcohol splash but the tonics do the job well enough. My only negative about the Wholly Kaw gear is that the scent doesn't seem to stay with you for very long, suppose that's what an EDP is for to be fair.

Itching to get my hands on the CG lvl 3, fingers crossed it'll be here in a week or so.

Hope everyone has a grand day!

Cheers

Marc

I have been using the Razorock razor a lot this month with thoughts of selling it, as it seemed to lack the level of efficiency that I was looking for. Everything changed today, I found the right angle and there it was, a close and very comfortable shave. Never the razor, always me. No surprise.

I went classic for thisnext shave - the best of British and the best of Japanese. Very enjoyable it was too, some excellent lather from the MWF and not that I needed calming down, but the Castle Forbes lime balm did that.

Stay safe and enjoy your shaves.

Blade: Feather (1)
Soap: Mitchell’s Wool Fat
Brush: Simpson's Milk Churn BB
Pre-shave: Bloom water

RazoRock R-160 Sweet Almond aftershave balm

I love almond. When I was a kid, my sisters and I were allowed to choose our own dinner dessert on our birthday, and for a few years I chose the delicious almond cake from a local Swedish buffet restaurant. These great almond software shaving products always remind me of that, especially the balm.
And the Carbon razor head seems to get even more beautiful with time.
