Re: SOTD August 30th - September 5th
I do. I don't usually show it, but there is an intermediate step between finishing the shave and using the aftershave, and that is to apply either Trumper's Skin Food or Eucris Hairdressing as a balm. 1 or 2ml of well-shaken Eucris dabbed around then rubbed in works wonders for my skin, which is as dry as dust since I got my new immune system. Also means some curious scent combinations when the aftershave goes on top. I particularly like the Eucris with No.74 original. For those that don't know, Eucris hairdressing smells nothing like the Eucris scent in the aftershave or soap; Trumper's describe it as a lily scent, though some say it is just like Ajaccio violets.

The Harris products are cached with care. The widely (and wildly?) appreciated Taylor's of Old Bond creams have taken center stage for a couple of months.
