Results: Early shave for me today (we we are hosting a "business" lunch today)...After taking the Helje for a refresh around the stones last night, she delivered an incredible shave today. But that should come as no surprise to anyone who has experienced a Swedish edge. For lather, I decided to go with a little CarrieM Lilac and a dash of Trumper's Rose. The Thäter whipped up a heck of über out of this mix, resulting in a thick and moist lather, with a wonderfully soothing floral aroma. |
Have a GRAND Saturday gentlemen .
