Soap: Executive Shaving Fresh Mint cream
Shaving Bowl: Captains Choice Obsidian Copper
Brush: Yaqi Lucky Dice
Pre-Shave: Mr Myrsol Emulsion
Other Product: Executive shaving Fresh Mint balm

Notes: It's a scorching hot day today at the seaside and to cool things down a little I opted for the Fresh Mint range.
It still baffles me how my heavy lather bowl just floats in the water and the lather generated today was just like delicious ice-cream but I wouldn't want to eat it ha ha.
A lovely two pass face shave on the lowest setting and job done.
Enjoy the day everyone.

New to me soap test.

I tried House of Mmmoth for the first time a few minutes ago and wow I loved it! Not as thirsty as some of my other soaps so the lather whipped up a little thinner than I like. I put it to the test with the Ti Blackbird standard base and the shave was fantastic! Flawless three passes. This will not be my last tub of House of Mammoth for sure.

Proraso pre-shave, Wild West Brushworks blue denim, House of Mammoth Sonder soap, Two-Tone Blackbird SB, Tatra, Omega alum, HAGs Cha Nova aftershave, HAGs Faceless balm.
