Usual prep

Martin de Candre
M&B brush
Feather SS + GEM bullet-tip
My homemade aftershave splash
Floris Santal ASB

Not the best shave (don't oversaturate MdC, it's better when on a dry side), but BBS eventually. First test drive of the all-natural aftershave I'm making - went surprisingly well. I hoped for a bit of an alcohol kick, but I guess will have to add more of that Glenfiddich in there.. Otherwise great skincare, as intended. Propolis, pollen and shea butter with EOs work miracles.
