Love this soap... an aromatic scent and a rich creamy slick lather...
Somehow...just 1 minor change and the past few SR shaves are just getting better. Today is the best so far. Many thanks to all for the tips and advice in various SR threads & posts. This razor's edge feels really sweet...buttery smooth in 3passes for a mixed bbs/dfs & ccs/sas finish. It's definitely my technique to be improved. The aftershaves were just terrific!

How do you like Chris' take on this bay rum? When I had it, I absolutely loved it and will certainly buy it again.

A wonderfully nice soap. Lovely scent and a dense creamy slick lather...top class!
The shave with this razor paired with the well-used blade was acceptable...kinda scrappy, but surprisingly good result. 3passes for a dfs finish without any issues. The blade will be retired. The aftershaves were terrific!

Hey, thanks for asking. Yeah, I absolutely love this bayrum very much...one of my favorite. I just couldn't find a good bayrum aftershave to match though...the Clubman VIBR is kinda clove heavy...hahaha

After not shaving my face for a year, I trimmed my sideburns with my Vintage 1980's Wahl Groomsman first, used the Vector to reduce and shape, then finished up with my WR2 0.95, leaving the goatee and 'stache unmolested, and my face, naked.
