LOVELY SHAVE today. Quite cheap as well.

shower,
proraso pre
cheap czech shaving soap that I picked up on holiday
selfmade brush
outram strop
6/8 cocobolo silversteel Worldmaster
hot/cold water
homemade cologne "love tonic" combined with aloë vera for an aftershave.

I was surprised how well the soap performed. It was cheap, smelled cheap (like soap with nothing added) but worked very well. I think it's of the double/triple milled variety and for $1 that''s not a bad deal. Maybe I can add some oils for scent somehow later. For now it'll do me just fine.

what also surprises me every time is how nice the cologne/aftershave I made feels. I might never buy aftershave again...just make it myself.
