Cheers! WIth the two for one offer at Boots, I might just buy myself one and PIF the other. I suspected it might make a demon latherer and thought it a really good one for creams especially and bowl lathering. I can save my other brushes for face lathering ... unless it's a good face latherer, too?

I only face lather, Paul, and it's well up to the job.

SOLD! Roll on Saturday :D

First shave with a open comb razor so went with a Derby rather than the usual Feather. NO NICKS! Great result. Not as harsh as I was expecting and I will definitely try a Feather next time.
Thanks for the discount code BTW TSR
