This shave ends 21 days (20 days of them straight) with using different Bay Rum soaps in my den. I have LASS Santa Monica Bay Rum and Pyrate Cove Bay Rum w Lime in waiting but feel the need to move on to other soaps in the den. The odd day out was my birthday shave in which I used Antica Barbieria Colla shave cream, my favorite cream/soap in my den.
