b]Friday xxiii May, 2014[/b]

Prep: Hot shower, Dove Men+Care Revitalising Face Wash
Pre: Cold water splash
Brush: Neep Custom Elm Burl MCMXL Penny Farthing (made for Dad)
Soap: Palmolive / La Toja bowl grated
Razor: Unknown Open Comb (my Grandfather's)
Blade: NOS Perma-Sharp Stainless #3
Post: Kiehl's Blue Herbal Astringent Lotion, Kiehl's Ultimate Men's ASB

Result: I've retired my Dad's Cade soap - I'm not sure how old it is and it wasn't working well, so quick delve in the soap den and out came the 100% dependable Palmolive / La Toja grated stick combo, which, as ever, performed excellently.

Happy PoeTS day, gents...,

Jon

So, I went for:
Watery Ingrams, bowl lathered
Omega 10810
Weber Bulldog
Zorrik [1]
Alum
Arko Ice ASB
etat libre d'orange london - Charogne
Zorrik blade was binned after first couple of scrapes. Very much like supermax BDs to me. Swapped to Personna LBs, much better.
Still need to find the best blade for the Weber as a little bit if sting from the alum.
Smooth as silk though...
The Charogne is, shall we say, an acquired taste!

That's the beauty of the etat libre d'orange range. The ones I've smelt are all very unique and like nothing else out there. Certainly some marmite ones although I liked the Charogne haha!
