Yes, I suppose they do get a little repetitive but there is only so much you can do with a brush, razor and soap. I must try harderP.
Indeed. P.Indeed! There's a few gents on here who post some really good SOTD shots, Celestino, Number Six & Darkbulb (well, not here anymore) and many others that have inspired me to try and create something other than a diary photo... Which is fine, but a bit boring after 24 months.
Hi Rob, I think it's a great soap. Hard, non tallow, very slick with excellent cushioning.Hi Michael,
Do you rate the Portus Cake Soap?
Cheers
Rob
Lovely Photo!
A rose SOTD
If the soap is a clove bay rum Paul, then Boots bay rum is cheap and cheerful.Wednesday 7th February
YaqI 24mm 2 band
OSP Bay Rum
Rockwell 6C plate 5
PolSilver SI (1)
Blue Stratos aftershave
Two firsts in today's shave with thanks to @Benz3ne . PolSilver blade and OSP Bay Rum soap.
I cranked the Rockwell up to 5 to see how the blade would perform, and it turned out to be a very comfortable pairing. Not a weeper in sight and a very close shave.
I don't have any aftershaves that match the soap, so I guess I'll have to buy one now !
It's a slightly limey Bay Rum. Not overly clovey. Meißner Tremonia Natural Bay Rum goes well. Extro Bay Rum is quite different but there's enough Bay. The boots stuff is great though for the price, especially if you put some menthol in there!If the soap is a clove bay rum Paul, then Boots bay rum is cheap and cheerful.

I'm not very good at describing scents but I'd say it's a cologne type scent.
It's as good as any tallow soap I've got.
Cheers
