SOS 05Mar - 11Mar

Raf, unless I'm mistaken, Nivea exports the same shaving cream you have to most countries in Europe. I had a tube which I received from a gentleman in Poland, and the cream has an excellent lather, and the skincare is fantastic. The spoiler was the scent. I can't deal with the Nivea scent. Everything else about it is perfect.

Blair, how does the Mama Bear Lavender soap smell? Is it a strongly scented lavender or a mild one?

Quick, lousy shave tonight.
Not sure if it was the IP

or what. Just no good.
