A Valentine Shave, was going to have my other half to pick the gear but she wasn't available, so I went with the best of the best I could have and I couldn't be happier.
Smooth shave with my favourite combination, I don't have a second shaved Polsilver ready as that will be much smoother for me, but a fresh blade is good as well.
I overload my synthetic brush, so you can just imagine how much lather I get with a synthetic brush and a Manuel's soap, my cleanup pass(4th pass) lather can easily given me another day worth of shave. No regrets on the overloading, it was fun to be drown with lather.
The soap is a fantastic performer and it is amongst the best performer I have, it was so gooey, slick, dense and almost any words you associate with a good lather can be used on Manuel's Tallow base soap lather. It's fantastic. The scent is fabulous, I would say medicinal and sweet though I'm scent is pretty weak so I probably butchered the scent. But it's amazing.
End off with my favourite fragrance, Noir de Noir, and going to pick up my girlfriend right now.
