Great Saturday morning shave following a good shower. Used my recently aquired Clubman Country Club shampoo. Nice stuff!

- Proraso Green Tea and Aloe shave soap
- Semogue LE 09 brush
- Merkur Futur
- Astra SP blade
- Baxter ASB

Wow, this Proraso Green Tea "soft" soap is amazingly good. Lots of cooling without any irratation. This stuff blows Bigelow cream out of the water. I was never impressed by Proraso products until now. I'm really going to enjoy this stuff!

Great pic - but... WHAT!?!?!?

what is that K10 container?????

fantastic!

 

[bythbook]

Well, how was it?

the Tawn shaving soap was great! very cushiony and slick - certainly in the MWF class. Not a lot of scent (also in the MWF class).

Awesome shots, very appropriate for a Sunday

As there are so many, I won't mention any in fear of leaving someone out, but please keep the eye candy coming

And for Eelco - I don't know if I should thank you or curse you for the 'manufactum' link yesterday, I thought I had just about all of my AD's under control here
