Mixing two sandalwood shaving creams a bit excessive maybe. Good fun though

Saturday

Slant | Derby | EJ/C&E super | Institut Karite SS

I'm pairing down my shave gear, and C&E Nomad SS didn't make the cut. I gave the puck to a friend, but kept the wooden bowl, which now houses Institut Karite SS, which may bump MWF out of my #1 shave soap slot... this soap is quite impressive. Go get some.

Dang it. I'm trying to resist Karite. That didn't help. Clever logo reattachment there.

A nice slow relaxing shave:

My first experience with a Waipenica (rescaled) and it was positive indeed. A gem to hone, it shaved well above it's price range.
