Wednesday xv January, 2014

Prep: Hot shower, Lucky Tiger Face Wash
Pre: Tepid water splash
Brush: New Forest Tubby 2
Soap: Queen Charlotte Soaps Mysore Sandalwood (face lathered)
Razor: Digress LD
Blade: Super Max Super Platinum #1
Post: Thayer's Medicated WH, Kiehl's Ultimate ASB

Result: Very nice all round. QCS was excellent, although very lightly fragranced. Produced an excellent slick, smooth lather that I couldn't really fault. No nicks, weepers or claret of any sort.

Pity the rest of life isn't quite so good...

Cheers

A nice quick two pass shave, the slant is ideal for a quick shave as it's so efficient. It was efficient enough to give me a couple of weepers! :-(
