Shower or Shave (SOS) May 14 - 20

C&E BBB
'54 SS with Derby unknown day
Lil Suz's Lilac shave soap
Skin Bracer by Mennen

Sue makes a great soap. Thought I'd try the Skin Bracer and was pleasently surprised with it. Has a little sting at first and a great cooling effect that lingers on for 10 plus minutes.:happy036

Thanks Xchris

my Lord, Klaus, Tabac in any form, stick or bowl, is wonderful! It's hard not to love it.

 

Hmmm, I guess that is why I used it this morning. It was a nice shave.
