Nice stuff this Desmond's Barrow although I'm not getting the rich and thick lather others are. Still good though.

Wow, that surprises me, Will.  One of the great things I found with Desmond's Barrow was the incredible lather I got from it and San Diego has hard water.  If Glasgow is like much of Scotland I should think you have soft water making a lather buildup pretty easy.

I think i may have over watered it again. I'm sure it was user error , great performance and shave overall though.

My first use of Reef Point Earl Grey and Ginger was simply outstanding. The lather is excellent and easy to make, like all RP offerings I've tried. Three smooth comfortable passes with the Future were followed by the matching splash - very refreshing. The scent seems a little green and herbaceous as it dries down. I really like Ginger and tea, so this is right up my alley.
