Hi Friends,

Here my Shave of the Day (26.08.2026)

IMG_0809.jpeg
Razor: RazoRock Lupo .95 // Blade: Gillette Bleue Extra (51) // Soap: Shannon ´s Soaps Balkan Blend // Brush: Jannick WH // Aftershave: Shannon ´s Soaps Balkan Blend

Oh man, i love this set. The scent is so wonderful. Tobacco with some Cherry and hints of Almond (at least for my nose). So warm and relaxing. The razor took care of my whiskers in 2,5 smooth and gentle passes. BBS finish.

10 out of 10

Have a great time, enjoy your shaves and stay safe and healthy.

Greetings
Thorsten
