RazorGuy Shave
Today I was in the mood for shaving with my produsts, from pre-shave oil to aftershave. I am still traveling, therefore I am still using my Mastro Livi Grifetto 60 and, on this regard, I cannot wish for more, as this Grifetto is a perfect companion for traveling. The straight razor was superb, as usual, but I was very impressed by my shaving soap: the more I use it, the more I love it. Not only it gives a super slick, rich, creamy and wet lather, it also provides a very good moisturizing effect leaving the skin soft and smooth with no irritations. I am still using my old Bay Rum as the new batch is still macerating in rum and I guess I will finish its making as soon as I get home. For the moment, I am enjoying this Bay Rum as well as the pre-shave oil and shaving soap, not to mention, a magnificent straight razor.

I continue to like the Astra stainless blade better than the SP. I believe that it is sharper and smoother.
