Greetings,
First outing of the Serbian Albus Palmira shaving Soap,another chistmas pressie to myself, with me having a great fondness for Cella shaving soap, and it's wonderful almond fragrance, i 've been intrigued in trying out the Albus Palmira soap after reading some great reviews on it...the verdict?
On opening the cubed box, and taking the clear cellophane wrapper off i was greeted by a 'not in your face,' yet wonderful scent of sweet almond, after soaking this semi-hard tallow based soap in warm water for 5 minutes i loaded my damp brush up with a generous amount for a 30 seconds, then add a few drop of water and started to create a lather in no time, the slickness and protection of this soap, i have to say is on equal par to cella, along with a equally good post shave feeling to my face, without any drying out issues in-between each pass,it's a thirsty soap, which isn't a bad thing, once i found my water ratio with it,i was rewarded with a good slick protective shaving lather.
Another very comfortable 3 pass + pick ups near bbs with no errors to report.
Finishing the shave off with a few dollops of The Real Shaving Co ~ Post Shave Soothing Balm.
My face is feeling smooth, & smelling devine.
Enjoy your day, ladies & gentlemen.
