Soap: Klars ??
AS 1: Humphrey's Alcoholado Maravilla 70

Fragrance:
Consecutive Daily Shaves - # 1,417

SOAP: I'm embarassed to say I've had this sample from someone for so long I can't remember who sent it to me (If you are reading this, please let me know) I'm nearly certain that it was Klars. it has a fresh clean scent and gave a great lather that I may have over hydrated but was still a marvelous lather and shave. From the small amount put into the bowl I had enough left after the shave to shave 3 Sherpas and their Yak. Great stuff !

RAZOR/BLADES: So I thought it cool that the blades that come with the Hydromagic 500 Gold were....Gold colored and so gave them a try. VERY tuggy the 1st pass but got thru it and was hoping pass 2 would be better after I just stropped it on my face doing pass 1......NOPE. Switched it out for a vintage Schick twin blade and on the 1st storke it was AMAZING and completed a shave that was for the ages.
