Greetings

Early morning face & head shave.

First time bowl lathering the The Eco Warrior soap bar which provided a wonderful slick protective lather in a short space of time I normally rub the bar directly into my stubble like a shave stick, then build up a lather with a damp, not wet brush adding water to the tips of the brush to get the lather to the consistency that I prefer. The shaving bar creates a more creamier lather using a synthetic brush, than it does using a boar brush.

Another comfortable face & head shave with no errors to report.

Finishing the shave off with a few small dollops of Cien Men Sensitive ASB.

My face is feeling cool smooth, & smelling divine.

Keep safe, and enjoy your day ladies & gentlemen.

Aftershave	Thayers WH & TOBS Sandalwood

Comments	This is the fourth and final shave with my RR Stealth Rasor loaded with a Personna Medical Prep. Blade. I probably could get another shave or two with the blade but rather than take a chance I decided to dump it. However, today’s shave was excellent: Smooth and close. Today’s brush is my Onega HI synthetic. The Williams soap was used for the 48th time and it going strong. Have a great day, folks.
