This reminds me that I need to make an effort to try Truefitt & Hill, Castle Forbes, & Trumpers...I guess i've been a small artisan kind of guy. Nice shot as always Teiste

New Forest 2201 | Martin De Candre | Scheon Burg 777 | Alum | Institut Karite Balm | Italian Floid (Amber)

Thank you to Bill (LegalBeagle) for the sample of Martin De Candre. Like others, I had some trouble getting a good lather out of this on the first try. It dried out pretty quickly, but it was my fault (too little product/too much water). Even with my incorrect ratios, the lather was extremely slick, protective and very moisturizing. My face felt amazing after. Oh, and the Scheon Burg is #1 on my list!

Gorgeous image... Let me guess, Frank, your fiancee served as the artistic consultant on this one...?

However schools out on the weekends so I make sure to get out and play then.

Glad the settling is going forward. Remember to play harder buddy. Kids can wear you down
