Almost the weekend, although to be honest, the days are all running into each other at the moment, not seen proper daylight for most of this week and apart from walking the dog and shopping not a lot happening day to day.
But a nice shave lifted the old spirits a bit. Smooth and comfortable face after an enjoyable, no issues, 2 pass effort - most enjoyable!

I am a Faithful!
I know, oh, hang on - have you been watching ‘The Traitor’s’ again?
Maybe!
Was watching it as I read this!
 
The soap has a wonderful strong scent but for some reason it has left my face a bit stingy which is unusual for me especially as the splash & balm have no alcohol.
Same for me M. The only soap and splash that I have had a bad reaction to. A burning sensation - which lasted a good 20 minutes after washing it off. Which is a bummer as it smells wonderful. I haven't had a problem with any other A&E scent - in fact, I consider them among the best.
cheers - I.

wow isn’t that weird.
I know @Boycie83 isnt keen on A&E either due to this burning sensation.
It’s a first for me & iv used them for 3 years ish.
