What soap/cream did you use today?

Ethos Lavender

Now that I reordered the Tonka Bean Skin Food Splash, I don't feel like I need to be too concerned about conserving it.  And there's no way I'd use the soap without the splash.  Well, except maybe if Frank whipped up some Tonka Bean Skin Food Lotion.

Tonka Bean Skin Food Lotion is coming my friend along with a serum..

MacDuff's Lilacs in Bloom

Ethos Lavender in F base….just starting my second month of using this as my only soap for an extended trip to Europe.
My skin feels absolutely fantastic.
I also use a bit of it as both a pre shave…before every pass and use the left over lather as a post shave before rinsing it off after clean-up.
My use-up rate using my travel Wee Scott brush has been very slow…easily get another month..or probable more out of it …depending on how many more leg shaves my wife uses it for…

This makes a fine fragrant lather, but the cushion is a bit thin. Whenever I use it, I have to remind myself to choose a mild razor and keep the scraping to one pass. So it’s not the closest shave, but that refined scent of cool, sweet tobacco makes it all worth while. Reminds me of Florence in the autumn.

This, ABC and IColoniali are favourites amongst straight shavers. What they lack in cushion is compensated in slickness. Slickness is critical when using a straight
