Gillette Red Tip

2 October, 2023

Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Great shave today. Skipped yesterday due to a relatively late shave Saturday after a lot of work around the house (replace kitchen faucet, scaping and repainting the exterior door frames, etc.) so today's shave was extra nice. No post Saturday but the setup for both days were (except for the brush used) the same. Great lather from the Martin de Candre "Vetyver" shave soap sample built with the YAQI "Bali" ST badger brush and I finished with Paco Rabanne Pour Homme after shave splash and EdT.

Also, love the soap! I now have a full-size jar on the way.

Hope you have a wonderful day.
