    Nice collection! Like I said next month I'll try to use only derby soaps. On the one side I hate that I can't use the other options, I like to change everything for almost every shave. One the other hand I think this exercise will make me understand how and why I do thing thus giving better shaves on the long run. Can't wait for the Arko/Derby shave.

    For those of you who celebrate, Happy Resurrection Sunday! I was excited to use my most inexpensive razor. I no longer have the proprietary blades and it will be the first time using this razor with a decent blade. Viva la difference! Shaving with this razor felt a lot smoother than with my previous shaves. I did 3 error-free passes for a über BBS result.
    Seaforth Sea Spice Lime has a wonderful atypical lime scent. It produces a creamy and slick lather. Here's my lather:

    Had some nice feedback from the alum. I expected it because the shave was very close. Yesterday, I bought a different brand of witch hazel and I like it because it doesn't have that typical witch hazel scent. I splashed on the matching aftershave and I am good to go to hit the gym. Take care.

    This Easter Day shave is hereby called my "Senior Moment Shave". Why. At the end of my first pass, I stopped, suddenly wondering if that was my SECOND pass. Very strange, but something like that can indeed happen to seniors. Anyway, I came back with Fine Latigo. Much better shave today than that of yesterday. I approached a speedbump at the same place I had the cut yesterday, but this time the razor solved it, and no cut resulted. Real nice everywhere else. Y'know, on some Latigo videos, they pronounce it "LA-tuh-GO". To each your own, I suppose, but I think LaTIgo is the correct one. Zeroes across the board on cuts, Knicks, Polka-Dots. I may not be able to confirm how many passes I had, but a great shave nonethleless. Super Duper Outstanding.

    Thanks Barry, I aim to try more face lathering, using creams and shave sticks and was wondering about which brush would work best!

    Very nice

    Superb

    It's been another fun month of shaves, setups, pics and comments!
