Result: 4.6/5.0 Very nice shave. Simple,smooth and clean. I had enough leftover lather that my wife used to shave with using my brush and bowl. Another nice hair tonic from Lucky Tiger but it's discontinued. I also retired the Lucky Tiger Lemon Facial Cream. Too oily and greasy. I will make it into a hoof dressing.
