Pre Prep + Tati Manteca de Karité shaving soap in Old spice mug + Simpson Duke3 Best + Rotbart 15.5 with Gillette Thin + Proraso splash with Veleiro balm


Still testing these spanish artisan soaps, today I have put it in my Old Spice mug, where it fits very well. It makes much foam without problems with a soft citric scent, although is not very remarkable in properties. Anyway is a cheap natural artisan soap and with a so good razor like this Rotbart you will always have good shaves like today!


Cheers!

Dovo 55 | Semogue 2011 Boar | Arko | Lucido | Antæus (Vintage)

A great shave for a Monday morning. I don't think about the Arko unless I'm traveling, but it is such a good product for the pennies per shave it costs. And the Dovo 55 is a legend in its own right. If you ever happen upon one, do not hesitate to pull the trigger. Of course, the Maxterpiece scales make this one an even more proud member of my very modest shave den.
