Greetings
Tuesday 24th December 2013 Christmas Eve
Prep: Shower
Razor: GEM OCMM
Blade: GEM Blue Star Carbon
Brush: Semogue 2012 SE Mixed
Soap: Speick Stick grated
Aftershave: Astral Cream (light)
As near to perfect as you can get. There is (IMHO) nothing that I have tried; DE SE or Injector, that shaves quite as well as the OCMM.
Regards
Dick.

Christmas Eve morning:
Prep: Hot shower, followed by Neutrogena Razor Defense Face Scrub
Pre: Village Barber oil
Cream: TOBS "Eton College"
Brush: Morris & Forndran 2-band "Blonde Badger", Style-1/3
Razor: Weber PH w/iKon handle
Blade: SuperMax Super Platinum (3)
Post: Thayer's Lavender witch hazel

Revisited the Weber head from the pass-around. Just as efficient/aggressive as I remember.
2nd time using the "Eton College" TOBS. I prefer this scent over the "Mr Taylor" and Avocado TOBS I have.

Shower / Bulldog Facewash
Proraso Pre
Simpson Duke 2 Pure
Nanny's Olive Oil Sandalwood Croap
Muhle Darth Vader Jet Razor
Sputnik blade
Great shave.
Like the Sputnik blades a lot.
The Nanny's performs very well, face lathers really good with the Duke 2 Pure, but there's almost no smell from it and whatever smell there is doesn't smell like sandalwood.
