About Whipped Shave Butter :-
"How to use: Say no to ingrown hairs, razor rash, strawberry legs and irritated skin. With my hydrating formula with a mixture of oils creating a bultery soft barrier for your skin
to protect and be shave ready.
Whipped body scrub works as a 2 in I by exfolialing the skin erasing any dead skin cells and dirt in the pores whilst moisturising and conditioning the skin ready for shaving or cleaning the body."
"Rinse your skin with warm water. Apply the scrub . Rinse thoroughly using warm water.
Shave, if desired. Pat skin dry, leaving it slightly damp. Apply moisturizer. Putting on moisturiser while your skin is still damp will trap in the moisture."

First-rate shave on Monday with this kit. I completely see where the great love of MDC comes from as this soap is just superb by any standard. And I will also add that this version has given me a new love and understanding of the "Fougere" fragrance in a wider sense. I now realize with greater clarity that it's a scent I'd recognized before in other things but could never quite put my finger on. It's quickly rising to the top as one of my favorite accords and I may be mildly addicted... ah well, it could always be worse.

The lady seller from Decorials can not spell to save her life - poor darling.

I was a copywriter 30 odd years ago and even drunk as a skunk I wasn't allowed any spelling mistakes whatsoever - the Gaffer was a tyrant LOL !

This was the fifth and final shave with the Razor Rock Stealth slant and PolSilver Super Iridium blade. I could probably get another shave with this blade but I decided against it. This is the third shave with the TSF Crema Purissima Per Barba. The soap continues to impress me. I am finding that I do not have to spend much time loading the soap on the brush to get an excellent lather. The B&B LE 2012 brush easily made a nice lather. It was a perfect shave. Have a great day, folks.
