Obie, I'd love to hear your take on the XPec. I love the cream and the EdT is divine!

Awesome Shaves today, Men! :nj

A bit of a cheat, here. This was yesterday's afternoon shave in preparation for a formal event for "Sweet Sixteen" celebrating the sophmore girls at my daughter's school. A full prep was needed, so I called on the Swedes. Eric Anton Berg provided a sweep of a 3 day growth and it's smaller, smiling cousin, the Ran-tan-Ka-rus accomplished up-close trimming and detail. Razorock limited, Thater, and Stetson filled in a super nice grooming, even for me! The purple tux accessories matched my daughter's dress perfectly for the Father and Daughter dance!
They grow up so soon!
Have a super week, Guys!
Tom

Shave prep: Face wash
Brush: Frank shaving badger
Soap: VdH / Erasmic cream
Scuttle: Robert Becker large
Razor: Le Grelot Hospital Bayle Annonay, 6/8 round point hollow
Strop: nun2sharp's hanging leather strop
After Shave Splash: home made splash
Notes: Grabbed the Le Grelot again today, it beckoned me and crawled into my hand as I reached into my rack. 3 nice slow passes, rewarded with a smooth BBS.
