Stellar shave, 3 days growth to BBS in 2 glorious passes.....Maiden voyage today with Irena's shave soap So far, it is outstanding and provided a great lather and a close shave with plenty of cushion and moisturizing lather

I need more practice with her soaps but so far 2 thumbs up Oh, and the scents are very nice too
