EDT: Aqua Di Parma Essenza


Well that was a top draw shave. I was going to leave my shave until tomorrow but when the Nuavia was so kindly dropped off by my favourite postie I was left with no option.

Out came the Streamline. A formidable beast that must be handled with care but teamed up with the Gem it worked through a 2 pass BBS shave with ease.

I think the soap played the biggest part of this shave. It really is gorgeous stuff. The lather was so thick and protective. It offered amazing slickness and the residue slickness is second to none in my opinion. Post shave feel is fantastic. No balm needed with this soap that is for sure.

The brush is perfect for me. Plenty of backbone it holds tons of soap and has lovely soft tips. I could not stop painting my face with it.

I really enjoyed that and enjoy yours ladies and gentleman. :)
Nice ones, guys, photo and setup both!
