Results: Today was the Frederick Reynolds' turn. To set the stage, I prepared a splendid überlicious lather out of the DR Harris lavender (the scent is truly hypnotic) and worked it into my whiskers for a good 2-3 minutes. The FR wiped it and the whiskers that were attached to it, clean. A simple yet wonderful shave:tu. Smooth and irritation free. |
Side note: I had also ordered some MWF bath soap which we used for the first time today. My wife disliked the scent, but I liked it a lot. However, we both unanimously agreed on the moisturizing properties of this soap. Great stuff for sure http://www.foroafeitado.com/foro/ima...s/thumbsup.gif. It's a keeper. |
