Beautiful brush and razor. Cheers.
For post-shave, the combination of Nivea Post Shave Balm + InstaSkincare Hyaluronic Acid is my everyday standby. Finished with the outstanding Floïd The Genuine aftershave and the wonderful Original Penguin Reserve EdT Spray. Great combination!
Dear Sir, I’m curious about the order in which you use your aftercare products. Does balm come before or after the splash?
I'll definitely be posting more detailed impressions through Sunday's shave.I'm interested in hearing aboutthat
soap...
At present, having a large number of soaps, the only soap I use enough to mention is Vitos Red Cocco. I like it (obviously). I also think I've gotten where I prefer soaps without scent. Even if I like their scent.
Happy shaves,
Jim

This soap has a nice fresh orange scent. Not overpowering. Saponificio Bignoli also makes an unscented soap - which I will probably also get.
My face is still quite happy this morning. No hint of drying, irritation or any other untoward aftereffects.
Today's razor will be the Wolfman WR2 1.25 SB with a Personna Israeli Platinum Red blade.
For the brush, I think I'll see how the soap performs with one of my favored synthetics.![]()
Unscented soaps definitely play a valuable role. Certainly puts the scent focus on the aftershave and fragrance of the day.Good deal, David.
I've decided to try a couple or three non-scented soaps. Today I ordered Shannon's Soap in the NIL (unscented) variety. I've tried one of the Timeless free gift samples of a Shannon's Soap, and liked it, including the scent, but don't want scent in my shaving soaps. (I've no idea why except to say I don't want the added complexity.)
Happy shaves,
Jim
