A very nice shave.
The wee scot really does astonish me each time i use it, today i rubbed on the soap-stick so i had a thin coating of soap on the stubble then set about face lathering with this tiny brush, dipping the tips and building the lather, yes, it takes time, however, i was rewarded with a wonderfully thick covering and the brush bursting to capacity with plenty held in reserve. The brush managed to hold enough for 3 full passes, i painted the face at the start of the 2nd pass then tip dipping and building the lather to the right consistency, on the 3rd passes i painted on what was in the bristles then gently squeezed the knot bringing the trapped lather from deep within, this was also painted on then tip, dip and build using the tips only producing enough for the 3rd pass, no waste whatsoever. Brilliant and very satisfactory.
A nice post shave, again the Vintage splash is running very low in this bottle.
Stay safe and enjoy your day all.

I thought about re visiting the pils tone….. have you saw the price of them recently….. I think I’ll be waiting a lot longer LOL

NOS GSB (5) I'm not enjoying this GSB as much as other GSB blades I've used previously. It's shaving well while using but giving a bit of skin prickle n sting with the Alum afterwards.

Cien Hyaluronic Acid moisturiser.
Signature Soaps Novus Spice AS splash.

Great take on a barbershop scent and performance lived up to my expectations. Gillette Nacet blade in combination with the Overlander provided a close and comfortable shave. Feeling smooth and smelling great. Have a nice day gents .
