St. John's West Indian Limes EDT

This was my first go with the QED and SCS lime offerings and I'm very happy and impressed with both. I wanted pure lime and not candy sweet lime - I was not let down.

I miss my Derby blades something fierce but I'm trying to work through my 6 remaining Feather blades (started with 10) so I can claim that I finished something in my shave closet. To me the Feathers are super sharp but deliver an inferior shave in comparison to the Derby.

First time using the new brush with a cream. Wow! This can really whip up a lather! I don't know exactly what happened, but I've never had a C&E cream whip up this nicely, at least not with my trusty SR-230. Oh, and it was a good shave too!

The Derby SC was total crap IMO. I got it with my derby blades from ebay, thinking $2 extra for the SC was not a bad deal. Boy, was I wrong.
