WTG-XTG-ATG (adjusted angles for my beard)

CRSW Bergamot & Bay today. 20 seconds: load & go with the Plisson brush. Superb, easy, thick, cushioning lather. I loaded a new Polsilver SI in the Red Tip. Excellent, smooth, close, nick free shave. I finished with Country Club Sweet Water.

I really wish Larry hadn’t decided to drop the “Original” and “Classic” lines of CRSW. The “Original” had moved into my Top 5 Soaps. I am just glad I just started my 2[SUP]nd[/SUP] jar last week.
