Greetings,

( Boxing Day Shave)

Maiden shave with the Derby Shaving Soap Bowl which was one of the few small Christmas presents i ordered for myself as it's been a while since i last purchased anything shaving related....Like it's shave stick sibling the soap bowl produces great lather in a short space of time....The soap residual slickness & protection are excellent equal to the shave stick if not better for it's lather density IMHO.....The scent of both the Derby & Arko soaps is something i personally don't mind to my sense of smell it's just a 'clean pleasant soap/lemon scent' which like the vast majority of shaving soaps with a few rules to the exception the scent vanishes after i have done my cold water face.

All in all it's a good acceptable shaving soap which i look forward to using again in my future shaves...As always opinions are very subjective, especially when it comes to Turkish shaving soap scents.

An enjoyable 2 pass + pick ups close comfortable boxing day shave with no errors to report...Finishing the shave off with a small dollop of Wilko Fruits Lemon & Black Pepper Body Butter.

My face is feeling super smooth & smelling divine...After a few domestic duties i will continue to get some well earned rest. ;)

Stay safe, and enjoy your boxing day ladies & gentlemen.:cool:

Soap Yaqi Lemon Lime Cedarwood
Brush Yaqi 24mm Mojito 2 Band Badger
Razor RazoRock GC.84-P
Blade Gillette 7 O'clock Super Stainless 1st
Aftershaves Stirling Witchhazel Wintergreen + Yaqi Lemon Lime Cedarwood Splash
Very nice qualities from this soap! Mild pleasant scent & the lather is just impeccably rich, creamy, and slick...created wonderfully with the awesome brush...perfect!
An excellent shave with the razor and blade pairing! Just smooth and comfortable in 3passes for a mostly bbs finish. Yesterday's Karve SB-F is more efficient. Very enjoyable nonetheless and super aftershaves to top-off a great session!

A newly acquired ER lather catcher was won on eBay late in November. The Yaqi brush was delivered about the same time. Then my lovely wife decided to wrap them up as part of my Xmas gift.
I'm so happy for my first run out, especially with a razor I've been coveting for a long time.

P.S Belated Birthday wishes Chris.
