Aqua Velva After Shave

The WSP Formula T Pumpkin Pie Shave Soap lathered well with Jayaruh #1 Badger Brush.

Truly Underrated Shave Soap & Aftershave! I don’t see Lockhart’s posted frequently, but it produces a thick & rich protective lather. I love the powdery Barberscent and the alcohol free aftershave that is refreshing and smells great. Some days I will use it even when I do not shave.

Proraso pre-shave, Omega EVO, Ti SB Blackbird, Feather yellow, Lockhart’s Barbershop Shave Soap & aftershave, Omega alum, HAGs Faceless balm. Perfect 2.5 passes.
