Me & my eldest son are geeking out about going to watch Rogue One later!

Great photo and set-up as per usual.
Enjoy the film, you're in for a treat.

Prep: Shower
Razor: Le Touriste
Blade: Le Touriste
Brush: Muhle Synthetic Small
Cream: Edwin Jagger Limes and Pomegranate
Aftershave: Astral Cream (soft)
EDP: Guerlain Mitsouko

I received this Shaving cream as a free sample and I'm very impressed with it, a delicate citrus scent, nice and slick and lathers super easily.

I have literally just looked it up on Jaggers web site and I see it is twelve quid for 100 grams I think that is rather expensive; very nice cream indeed but not that nice.

Regards
Dick.

I've got the soap in that scent not as expensive but it's a tiny puck! Think it's £5 for 65g their pricing on soaps n creams is a little off I think

Think of Lavender & Herbs sprayed with Menthol and you get the UKWSS soap.
Great accompaniment to the ClogPruf which always produces a really close shave. May have to wait a bit longer for the next one.

See you then!

Omega s10065 Syn.
OSP Bay Rum soap
Merkur Futur
Lab Blue [ 1 ]
Alum Rub / Rinse off
Tuff Green A/S lotion

As a change of pace from SE/Injectors decided on a short visit to DE Shaving. Chose the Futur which is considered
hefty by some folk, but compared with a modern S/S SE razor seems quite small. I now feel that DE Razors are
less forgiving of poor shaving technique, so that is why I like Adjustables, as I can dial in to a less aggressive
setting to assist in avoiding mishaps.

The Shave was actually quite quick and smooth, and am very pleased with the overall quality of finish afforded by the Futur . While not as close as yesterday, with a modern S/S SE fitted with a Feather AC Type blade - it is of a standard I would have been more than happy with when I returned to DE Shaving.

A wonderfull smooth shave with the dot 2 plate fitted to my SP Single Edge, the OSP with its great bay Rum scent was just fantastic . My Kong boar brush is so easy to hold even with slippery hands and whipped up a great lather in my new lathering bowl.

Wishing you all well. :)
That's a really interesting brush you have there my friend! Did you make it yourself or buy it? Very unique looking!:cool:

My first DE razor shave for a while but the R41 never fails to do the job and do it well,these blades are one of the best I've had the pleasure to shave with, sharp and smooth.
