Pre-Shave: @khun_diddy Olive Oil Soap, cold water
Razor: RazoRock Stealth Slant V1
Blade: Voskhod (1)
Brush: Doug Korn D7V
Lather: Stirling Bay Rum
Post-shave: Alum, Stirling Bay Laurel Witch Hazel, South Australian Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil​
 
Thur 30th March

Omega 11126 boar
Williams Expert Ice Blue Cream
Schick I 1
Schick Twin [ 3 - Japan]
Alum Rub/Rinse off
Williams Aqua Velva A/S Lotion

Rather a nice change to use a cream rather than soap. Worked very well will this little Schick,and it seemed to speed up the Shave. The Twin blade really energises the Razor, and delivers a top class all-round lose finish.

PAA Prismatic razor
Super Iridium blade (#2)
Maggard 22mm black synthetic brush
Haslinger Schafmilch soap
TOBS Sandalwood AS

I haven't yet quite fallen into the Haslinger "cult", but this lil' fella sure is a stellar performer!! I simply cannot say enough great things about this ethereal Prismatic DE razor. It almost makes the whole shaving process somewhat mystical. Get one!! ;)

Brush: Vie Long 04503
Razor: Gibbs Adjustable No 17 (6) w/ Polsilver SI (3)
Soap: Valobra Cologne
Post: Thayers Rose Witch Hazel & Crabtree and Evelyn Sevillian Neroli

Two days growth to get through today so bravely cranked it up to 6, or 12 in my case (loosened the handle and cranked it all the way to 6, unwittingly already did it last week so I had doubled the max blade gap, made for a very interesting first pass!)

Setting 6 is a little too aggressive for my tastes, no cuts or irritation but a weeper or two on my chin. I tried it and sated my curiosity. Valobra performed like a champ, the Vie Long still holds the lather a little but is is breaking in still. ​

How do you rate the Crabtree & Evelyn Sevillian Neroli?

It is very pleasant, I think they are underrated for their fragrances. Moroccan Myrrh is a stunning fragrance by them, the shaving soap is fantastic too. If you wait it out a little they usually have a sale at Easter and you can pick up the colognes at discounted prices. I got that and two others for £15 each instead of the regular £42 last Easter
