SOTD, Friday afternoon, July 11th, 2014

Shower after pool fun with the kids + Neutrogena glycerin soap face wash
Sample of new St James of London Cedarwood and Clarysage shave cream, courtesy of a kind wet-shaving friend
Rudy Vey beehive badger brush
Feather SS folding straight razor + Proguard blade
Cool washcloth rinse
St James lavender geranium balm sample
Cool washcloth infused with Pinaud Lime Sec

The St James cream and balm were awesome; unique scents and performed on par with the best of the Brits.
I look forward to trying the other two flavors sometime soon.
