Yep, just the soap. For post shave I figured Teacher's Pet is already pretty close to it anyway. For other options, maybe Alive, Bixby, or Opulence?

Glad you liked Braeburn. I just got my full tub the other day after finishing off the sample. I may copy your software setup this weekend.

May 15, 2024 - Limes, Limes, Limes!

• Brush: Stirling Soap Co. Green & Ivory 24mm Synthetic 2-Band Synthentic Knot
• Razor: Mühle Rocca R94
• Blade: Gillette 7 O’Clock Super Stainless (Green) [5]
• Lather: Mike's Natural Soaps - Lime - Soap
• Post Shave: Stirling Soap Co. - West Indies Lime - Aftershave
• Fragrance: Spearhead Shaving Company - Seaforth! Sea Spice Lime - Eau de Toilette

Mike's Natural created a great lather, while the simple, refreshing lime note was on display. West Indies Lime has a fantastic bay note, coupled with a bright lime top. I wish the two notes were blended together a little better, but the bay note stayed with me all day. SSL provided that fresh, well-loved finish.
