Lucky Tiger Tonic

Yep, same as yesterday. I left the soap on the counter to dry, neglected to put it away, and that led me to use it again. That and the fact that it is a phenomenal soap.

Simple, great shave today! It's 25 degrees Celsius here and the perfect day for menthol cooling! I love face lathering and I might simplify my shaving routine on a regular basis. The Dorco blades are perfect, just the right amount of sharpness and gentility! Great shave today!

Warmest regards, Niksa
