16. 7.

Today, "eucaliptus" shave!





Pre Prep + Jabonman Eucalipto-menta-pino-árbol de té + Vie&Long 13064 horse hair + Rotbart 15.5 with Crystal #3 + Myrsol Agua de Limón "alum" + Razorock Wax Eucaliptus


A really smooth shave, this Jabonman soap is one of the best I have ever tried taking care of my skin, the proof is that a so alcoholic splash like this Myrsol didn't "hurt" me almost nothing, hehe


Cheers!

Ahhhh, vetiver! What an amazing way to start the work week. The Jabonman whipped up into a luxuriously pillowy lather, which let this little Grelot works its magic. After two passes, I was CBS and my face feels incredible. I really needed no AS, but couldn't resist. After I wrapped things up, there was only one choice for a fragrance - more vetiver. And the Carven worked a peach! What a day!
