2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.
I checked my shaving database and, apparently, I have 12 BaM soaps. Not surprisingly, it is my most-used brand; followed closely by Stirling. Of the BaM products I own, all (or almost all) are in Omnibus. I consider this to be a top-tier soap base. Of the scents, I think of LGC and Seville as very distinctive everyday scents. Then there's a good group of coffee and tea scents followed by more specialty fragrances; Marilyn, Spice, Bay Rum, etc. All terrific stuff. Anyway, LGC was a no-brainer choice for today as is Seville for tomorrow.
Wait! u/VisceralWatch is a WetTuber? Okay, I may have actually watched his eponymous channel playing jazz, and I may have seen 1 or 20 of his shaving videos.
But VW is a whippersnapper; far too young to rant convincingly. Though he's very knowledgeable about shaving gear that was created before his time, and is a reliable commentator on Chicago weather, he lacks the patois necessary to make American English sound authentic and difficult to understand, even to Americans. For that, you need Shaving With Fuzzy who, I know, sets a standard to which VW aspires.
I wasn't feeling inspired to make a photo so for today I went back in black.
