Goodline TTO razor
Goodline stainless steel blade
Leponix synthetic brush
Leponix sandalwood shaving cream
Care One witch hazel
Aqua Velva musk aftershave
Sandalwood Reve cologne

Warm shower prep with Old Spice swagger body wash

There are only a few remnants clinging to the side of the container but it was enough for a face lather. I did two passes and buffed the trouble areas and acquired a BBS finish. I splashed on the Aqua Velva musk because it felt like fall. The Sandalwood Reve complimented the musk.

Is the lather that LPL soap provide, airy and light?

Sure is

I found them dense and yogurty. The three I tried were thirsty and made shiny lather. They were, don’t know if they still are, very soft soaps (don’t ship them during warm weather). As a result it’s easy to overload LPL. I found them fickle. There was a very fine hydration line that once overstepped produced runny lather that was just a drag to use.

Indeed the first use with them was fine. From the second one, not so good, even if I bloomed them.

Cyril even sent me for free a newer batch. First use creamy lather, second one lighter almost foamy lather.
