SOTD Saturday 6 June - Friday 12 June 2026

[p.b]

I had to double check that I had the RC100+ rather than the 120+ as there was plenty of blade feel during this shave. A close shave but I had to be delicate.

Have used this soap before, as I have a small puck in my travel kit,Found that I could get a nice rich lather without any problems and it did not dissipate quickly as others do. The Shave was very comfortable, and I was able to get a nice close all round finish with ease.
