Mar 16, 2024 - Warmest Regards

  • Brush: AP Shave Co. Honey Ebonite 26mm G5C Fan Knot
  • Razor: EldrormR Industries MM24
  • Blade: Personna GEM PTFE [16]
  • Lather: Moon Soaps - Warmest Regards - Soap
  • Post Shave: Barrister and Mann - Nordost - Aftershave

The Moon Soaps base isn't bad, but it took a little patience to dial it in. Warmest Regards is a nice scent, but it's reminiscent of something else...maybe Barrbarr. Nordost paired well with it.

Rating: 4/5

I can generally find a way to lather and shave with most soap bases, but I admit that I'm becoming a bit of a snob. There are so many excellent soap bases available, it's hard not to stick to the ones I know.
