(Face & Head Shave)

Greetings,

A new eclectic shave set up to start the weekend... Last weekend I had a wonderful shave using the HWF Lanolin shaving soap, this week Starting off with MWF. I absolutely love this shaving soap once I've mentioned in many of my posts once I stopped trying to figured out how to get the best from it.... "Being on a over zealous quest to achieve perfection from any shaving soap or any shaving item as a matter of fact is pointless IMHO".. I have realised you just loaded it up with a damp brush, add water to the tips of the brush in between each pass and hey presto it creates an acceptable slick lather. Some shaving soaps and creams, work better than others, but all create an acceptable lather with a little patience & effort.

What is important is a shaving soap provides slickness glide, protection and a good post shave feel, MWF does all this and more from it's lanolin goodness.

I like the mild lavender/spicy scent of MWF which isn't an "overpowering in your face scent" like some other shaving soaps have. On a personal note a shaving soap fragrance isn't that important to me as once I've rinsed my face with water the fragrance has virtually disappeared...

Another close comfortable face & head shave with no errors to report.

Finishing to the shave off with a few small squirts of Rapport original EdT spray to the pulse points.

My face & precious swede are feeling smooth and smelling divine.😉

Stay safe, and enjoy the start of the weekend ladies & gentlemen.😎
