Tuesday morning: L’Oreal Men Expert Facial Wash Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster Super Speed/Astra Green day 2 Boots Shaving Stick L’Oreal Men Expert Moisturizer Proraso Red AS Splash This Boots stick may be as cheap as chips but it works great. The scent is unusual - kind of an industrial lemony/soapy type but not unpleasant, it provides excellent lather which is rich as well as slick, and it leaves a good postshave feeling. The L’Oreal moisturizer is really soothing, and the Proraso Red aftershave smells beautiful. Three passes gave me a brilliant BBS shave! Be well and safe! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It has been over a week, since my last shave. I contracted The COVID virus, while at work, and I just didn't feel like shaving, or doing much of anything else. Until today. So, this is my "Lockdown Shave". It is with a newly restored, and honed American Made razor. I had a silky smooth, 2 pass shave, that left me BBS. Zero issues, except I cannot smell anything I am using. Razor- Lakeside Cutlery "Army and Navy". USA. Soap- AOS "OUD" Brush- @oscar11 homemade special. Synthetic knot. Aftershave- Florida Water.
Thanks, Clint! It showed up in yesterday's mail. Seeing your pics with the WRH2 handle completely influenced my decision on which handle to get. It is a beautiful razor. Sent from my SM-T510 using Tapatalk
