    This is a tribute shave for all the veterans.. Did a 3 pass error-free shave this afternoon. It was a very close and comfortable shave. Picked the Limoncello soap because I felt it was an appropriate "liquor scent" to toast these brave men and women. Here's my lather:

    I had some alum feedback on my neck, but it wasn't too bad. Splashed on the witch hazel and the matching aftershave to top off this shave. Take care.

    Great shave Chris. I rather have more than less lather. I use the extra lather to lather the face and then wipe it off so that I enjoy the scent much more.

    DE Shave # 554

    Rating: 5 / 5

    Razor: PAA Injector - Type L
    Blade: Schick Injector
    Brush: RazoRock Plissoft Monster 26mm
    Lather: PAA Boomtown Bay Rum
    Aftershave: PAA Boomtown Bay Rum
    Additional Care:
    Maggards Alum
    Nivea Sensitive Balm
    Thayer’s Witch Hazel - Original

    This shave is the last of three in the Southern Den for this trip. All three shaves featured the PAA Boomtown Bay Rum and the RazoRock Plissoft Monster synthetic brush. The razors did vary for all three shaves in the following order:
    Saturday: Merkur 39c “The Sledgehammer”
    Sunday: The Smith Long Handle DE Razor
    Today: PAA Injector - Type L

    The end result was three super smooth, comfortable and error free shaves. Looking and smelling good in the Sunshine State.

    Hope you all enjoyed your weekend and a salute to our Veterans.

    Never can have too much lather. I used the extra lather for application # 4 which allows for continued hydration of the face while I clean up my hardware.
