Shave of the Day - 2025

[SpeedyPC]

C&S (Valobra) Oxford and Cambridge

I haven't had much luck at all getting my hands on the C&S (Valobra) Oxford and Cambridge, not sure if I will enjoy the rosemary, mint and oakmoss scent

 

[Bladerunner7]

Hahaha I honestly didn't expect Speedy to be a fan of lavender.

Mate, the Speedster can't get out of the house without his Yardley Lavender Talc. He has a secret stash of it.

 

[Bladerunner7]

Only 100% pure lavender soaps, otherwise, doesn’t relax me at all during my shaves.

Chamomile Soap can relax you better Bruh.

I don't think you will enjoy them; almost all old Valobras smell musty. Or Degraded tallow, I have some

The Valobra unscented tallow soaps I have doesn't smell musty at all.

 

[Bladerunner7]

Thats what happens when you haven't put on your talc mate.
