    I suspect that it's a repackaged product. It's not something that I'd be looking to buy. Really it's more of a lotion, but gives satisfactory protection for a shave-on-the-run.

    Fatboy Friday's Shave

    Proraso Pre Shave
    Valobra Shaving Soap
    Jayaruh #285
    Gillette 195 Fatboy
    Astra SP
    CWR
    Thayer's Lemon WH
    Mennen Skinbracer

    I started off with Proraso Pre Shave. The Valobra Shaving Soap face-lathered well with the Jayaruh #285 brush. I did two passes with the Gillette 195 Fatboy with an Astra SP blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Thayer's Lemon WH and then Mennen Skinbracer AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Today's fun:

    C. W. Beggs Facial Wash
    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Super Speed/Astra day 5
    RVT Chapmunk SS
    Dave's Homemade ASB
    Aramis EdT

    Smooth as a baby's little tush - this Chapmunk soap is such a delight. Its scent is lovely, it lathers so easily and the chamomile in it is so relaxing. DaveP's balm is very addictive - I love it!

    Have a great weekend!
