Max Refreshing a/s :drool :drool :drool :drool

Tabac, Tabac---I should shave more often with it, because I have a bowl that's used perhaps 6 times, a stick that's not even a quarter used, and a brand-new stick still in the box. This soap is so good! This Max a/s is becoming my favorite as well, I really enjoy the scent, and the super cooling it gives.

1St time use of the Noxzema SC. was I shaving inside a fridge ?
I used too little cream so could only do 2 passes , but pretty amazing result for even doing a 2nd pass with obvious barely enough cream still it uphold its slickness . Note: next time use twice as much cream out of the tube.
