This morning brought out the old standard Friodur and some almond Uber
based on the Velobra Almond Soft Soap....
Interesting stuff. can't decide it it's a cream or a soap, it lathers up great and my shave was fantastic, the wife however was not quite as enthused when she tried it on her legs, she said, "not slick enough"

Finished of with some Dominica Bay Rum AS
