    Good day, Gentlemen!

    Soap: Old Spice MEGA-BRICK milled inside OS mug, lathered in lion bowl
    Brush: 24mm Rudy Vey custom Desert Ironwood #2
    Razor: The Pistachio Friodur
    AS: Captain Morgans (yup)
    EDT: Egoiste Cologne Concentree, Chanel

    I'm SOOOO glad I transferred my vintage Old Spice soap back to the Ol' Fashioned mug and left the lion bowl open for lathering! Look at the size of that lather ball. Hooray for 30 year old OS! Best. Soap. Ever.

    BBS and loving life, fellas. Cheers!

    Prep: Hot Shower
    Brush: Rooney 1/2 (currently waiting on a second brush I got in a trade)
    Soap/Cream: MB/Proraso
    Razor: C-MON Blackie
    AS: Witch Hazel/Kiehl's Ultimate

    Alright shave, first time in a while going fully ATG on my cheeks, not too bad. Razor felt a bit harsh today, just think I had my lather mix off a bit.

    MisterA: The Proraso AS smells just like the soap, I highly recommend it. The menthol is not over-powering; but refreshing. This AS is going to be in my permanent rotation.
