  1. Nice one Perry! As an aside, I just couldn't put something on my face with the name Pig's Trail on it no matter how great it smells.

  14. Nice shave Clint! Wishing you the best. We're no strangers to limiting contact while we wait for results. Not fun! Life will be back to normal soon. I laugh when I say that because I think it's going to take months, but months don't seem as long as they use to.

    Stay healthy and safe my friend!

    Czech & Speake No. 88~~Simpson Rover~~Feather AC~~YSL Kouros
    I used to think that the Czech & Speake No. 88 was a "
    rose-ish" scent,
    but I really got a grassy, fougère feel, which really paired well with the YSL.
    I received this Rover today and put it right to work. I am not sure about the knot.
    Soft? Yes. Backbone? Yes. Flow-through? Yes.
    Uninspired shape? Yes. Who do they have tying knots at Simpson these days?
    Look at these examples from about 10 years ago:

    Now look at the Rover...
    The handle is nice and the butterscotch is lovely.
    It whipped up a lovely lather as you can see:

    I think I have purchased my last "new" Simpson brush. :(
    The Feather AC felt clumsy in my hand, having not used it for quite a while.
    Nevertheless, I was successful in not hurting myself, which is always a positive. :)
    The C&S is a Valobra-made soap with extra slickness and protection.
    Finished with Witch Hazel and a few sprays of the YSL Kouros.
