LOVELY STUFF!
Prorasso Splash is just such a clean clean product, The Pashana only arrived today and I like it! My wife likes it! thats a full House! 10/10.
All in all what a silky smooth menthol Shave and a beautifully warm soft scent in the Bay Rum. SHAVE ON!
Prep>>Hot Shower + Proraso Pre shave cream. I had a two day growth of stubble in preparation for this shave. I have thick facial hair specially underneath the jawbone and neck. After the first pass W. the grain, I nuked a towel for a minute and applied it to my face. Relathered for the second pass. I shaved A. the grain from neck to jawbone. Relathered again and shaved my cheeks X. the grain.
Razor>>Newly arrived Friodur 8/8 INOX square point. Stropped 30/30 in red latigo....sharp, a fantastic shaver! I love the wider blades.
SC>>Boy, the English sure know how to make shaving cream. TOBS Sandalwood wipped in bulldog mug.
Brush>>Vulfix 22mm badger hair
Astringent>>My own which I concocted: dark rum, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, witch hazel and glycerin. Cured two weeks.
AS>>Proraso Splash
Footnote:
A very nice and relaxing shave. It was indeed worth the wait. SHAVE ON
