    Well, I'm at the airport in Johannesburg waiting to board my flight after a wonderful shaving journey to South Africa, (just kidding, I haven't gone anywhere!) and let me say that this Wriggly Tin Rosemary Mint soap is excellent. It's a goat milk soap which has a very nice scent as well as very, very rich lather and quite a bit of cooling. It left my skin feeling great after my shave and the Nip Man balm added to the comfort. This soap, like the other ones I've tried so far this week has good blade glide so a two pass BBS shave was so easy.

    Have a great Sunday!

    Last shave was this past Thursday. Had to see if the Mamba could go up against 3 days stubble. 3 pass and not a single issue. The least aggressive razor that I have and shaves very well, at least for me so far. Rainy & soggy day but a great shave and breakfast makes up for that. Have a great day and shaves Gents... ;)

    Prep: Hot water, b&bw Rosewater body oil massage
    Soap: An Uber lather with Tabac cream/soap
    Razor: Wacker Classic 2
    Brush: RR Monster
    Post: Hot water rinse followed by coldwater rinse.
    Aftershave: Witch hazel/Nivea face cream topped off with Tabac ASB/EDC


    A wonderful shave. The brush coupled the the Tabac Uber lather, provides a cubic yard of scuttle warm slickness:). The Wacker has one ultra sharp edge, yet smooth as silk. It all came together this morning and left me with a smooth comfortable, smell good finish.

    Shifting from cream to soap this week. Proraso white is my favorite of the three Proraso soaps. I may run with it all week. Very satisfying 2 pass, minor touch-up shave this morning. A fresh Astra blade never disappoints.

    Soap: Proraso White
    Brush: Omega 10086 boar
    Razor: Fatip Grande
    Blade: Astra SP (1)
    Aftershave: Pinaud Clubman

    Nice WSO Guy. (A true unicorn these days) I wish I had some of that WSO Signature AS to go with my soap.

    Now come on friend, with all this detail you tell us your razor is a "Schick Injector". That's like saying "Gillette Double Edge". Even looking at the photo it could a number of variations. Tell us what you're shaving with, that's why we're here :) .
