Technique:(Feather WTG/ATG)/(DE XTG/Cleanup)

Post Shave
Aftershave:Pinaud Clubman Citris Musk Eau De Cologne 4
Moisturizer:Thayer's Witch Hazel Moisturizing Lotion 3

Result: 4.5/5.0 The Musgo Real Lime Oil Glycerin soap was a dud. I had to enhance it with some Kiss My Face Unscented Shave Cream which once again saved the day. The lather went poof. You know when you hear a lot of soap crackling you're in trouble. Too bad. The Musgo Real Shave Cream is a different animal and much better in my opinion. 3 Roses Hair Tonic is nice but discontinued.

 

Was in a hurry this AM so I used the Mach3. Got a wonderful, BBS shave regardless.

Result: 4.5/5.0 I did a huh today. The Gentlemen's Quarter Shave Soap did a fade on me which is unusual. I'll have to test it again to see what's up with that. The shave was fine. Finished off with the Anherb Conditioner which is always nice.
