SOS: November 2024

One of Stirling's best scents, imo. Clubman, on the other hand...

 

I notice that the A.S. is "Dopabarba" while the soap is "Sapone d Barba". What's the difference, since they both are Figaros?

 

Would you like to finish your Clubman thought??????

Pre shave : (Dedicated Cashmere synthetic)Brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser with a dollop of clear Aloe Vera on the cleaned beard area.

Greetings,

Franken-soap week.

A new eclectic shave set up to start the Weekend...Once in a while I like to use my franken-soap creations I find it's a good way to use up both Shaving & bar soaps remains rather than just discarding them.

Another close comfortable face & head shave with no errors to report.

Finishing the shave off with a few small dollops of Nivea Men Replenishing PSB.

My face & precious swede are feeling smooth and smelling divine.

Stay safe, and enjoy the start of the weekend ladies & gentlemen.
