Delayed Valentine's Day Shave (my wife and I both worked and I didn't get home until after 1am) Tough to see, but I used the bakelite Merkur 45c on a black anodized WCS handle considering the red theme. Nice smooth shave but I think the blade is near the end of its life. My wife likes the scent of the Clubman hence me using that after shave lotion. Hope everyone had a wonderful day with their significant others. Happy weekend as well. Josh Sent from my LYA-L29 using Tapatalk

My first use of the Arran Lochranza shaving soap. It's a good shaving soap....lathers well with good protection although the post shave feel may be slightly lacking....but what a scent. I think a bottle of the matching EDT may soon be on order. 3 passes and I am well and truly set for the day. It's amazing how scent can influence your frame of mind!
