Today’s challenge soap is The Art of Shaving - Sandalwood. I had a puck of this that I gave away last year because it gave me a little bit of burn, now I’m kicking myself for letting it go just thinking of all the points I just lost!
Proraso Red, which is scented with sandalwood, is always an acceptable shave. The lather isn’t amazing by any stretch, but it gets the job done pretty easily. I also quite like the scent.
