I just found a place that sells the Aqua Velva lotion in a glass bottle. Sounds like it is a different formula than the Aqua Velva Ice Blue we have locally. Have you used them both, if so what are your thoughts on the difference?
Today is my 21 year wedding anniversary. We are going to go to dinner at a friend's restaurant tomorrow night to celebrate. Today I picked the Schick G with custom handle along with a Zenith Boar and Cella organic. Aqua Velva is always a good choice especially considering my wife likes the scent.

SE SOTD, Fri, Jan 28th 2022 Razor: Yaqi V2 Excalibur AC 50mm-Mfg 2021> excellent tame mid range, great design for clamping blade, small razor head, a joy to use working the face + excellent daily driver for some folks. Easier to assemble over a wash cloth because of small parts IMO. Blade: Feather Pro (5) sharp & smooth with reasonable longevity for AC blades. This blade works well in this razor IMO. Soap: Razorock The Dead SEA, unique scent & hard to describe & I enjoy it + excellent lather qualities. Brush: Yaqi Artic sky 24 mm Silver tip badger, excellent lather generator, heavenly pillow like soft tips, nice scrub + great lather painter. Pre shave: Brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser + a dollop of clear Aloe Vera Gel on the cleaned beard area. Prep: Cold water rinse of each pass of 2 + pickups. Post shave: Razorock "The Dead Sea" AS with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion + scentless. Results: CCS,DFS,BBs + no irritation + no weepers = excellent shave with my Yaqi V2 Excalibur with a AC Feather Pro. Have some great shaves!
