Word.
I mean, thanks
Which do you like better?
I think the Limey is my favorite, but MoM liked the Rosey I sent her

 

Tried the Rosey and the Limey so far, so still got those others to try out... but s o far I do believe I have to agree with MoM -- Rosey by a nose.

But they're both Niiiiiiiiice.

I find that my DE can be more rough than a MACH3 at times. Three days in a row and my face starts feeling it. Today I used the DE for my mustache only as I can get BBS there with it easily.

 

Wonderful shave today

I mixed a little of the Bloq SC with the Bigelow[Proraso] to see if it would help with the scent. It worked, and the shave was wonderful. A citrus-floral aroma with a menthol kick!!

Those Gillette blades are worth the money.....
