Shave of the Week Starting 6/17/2024 Weber DLC razor Gillette 365 blade PAA Amber Aerolite brush VDH Fresh Eucalyptus SS Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe Various A/S Saw that VDH has a couple of new SS and thought I'd try them out. I have used VDH products previously and have had nice shaves with them. This one's a bit different as it didn't make lather as easily as the Luxury or Original but it did make a fine lather that worked well. I'll use this one for the week and report on it later. Initial thoughts are that it's nice and has a pleasant but mild scent. At any rate, mu face is happy. Now go enjoy yoiur day folks.
