Outstanding lather quality! Very rich and creamily slick, the scent is just too light. Wayyyy...too much from just a little...
I am just enjoying the best shaves ever with this AC razor and blade setup. Unbelievably effortless silky smooth, comfortable and efficient for 3passes resulting in another continuous bbs session. Rating 10/10!!
Found myself reluctant to return to DE but AC blades are just too expensive...hahaha 😅😅
