Still no shave, just new pictures:

Manaslu M-55 | Thäter Fan | Bomb - Rose/Sandalwood | Chanel Antaeus
The den smelled great when the explosive power of this bomb was released. I've taken to always face lathering lately, but today I broke out a bowl and used it to lather. And the Bomb just shines in this role. The lather that was created was so silky and wonderful. The Thäter tips, which are soft in and of themselves, felt like pure silk as they swept across my face loaded with this lather. And the scent is utterly intoxicating. Pure sandalwood and Turkish Rose oils were used to make this SC, and they lend wonderful attributes to the lather it produces. This is by far my favorite of the Bombs, and the smooth, hydrated feel of my BBS face is the reason why!
Have a great day, gentlemen, and thank you for sharing and allowing me to share!He saw a lawyer killing a viper on a dunghill hard by his own stable; And the Devil smiled, for it put him in mind of Cain and his brother Abel.
