This is the 20th shave with MdC and it was another good one. Even with this small T&H brush, there is plenty of nice, rich lather. The razor and blade continue to be the RR Stealth Slant loaded with a Med Prep blade for the third shave. A fine, no-issue shave. Have a wonderful day and weekend, folks.

Fruity February

Hello friends!

This is a sunny summer morning, here. Today, I tried for the first time a MdC. Following the advice of a fellow shaver on YouTube, I chose a synthetic brush for it. The lather was instantaneous. The smell of lavender and rosemary sent me straight to the French Riviera. Although the protection was not as good has MWF, Tabac, Haslinger or a mutton Stirling, MdC came to be part of my den. And I reckon for the way the level of the soap remais intact it will be eith me from here to eternity, like Frank Sinatra, Deborah Kerr and Burt Lancaster…
The fruity section of my shave was represented by Citrus Musk that matched the soap extremely well.

To complete this wonderful event, Ben Webster was playing the tenor…

Have a great friday and wonderful shave!
