Molton a Brown soap
Sterling Glacial
S&C silvertip
Feather AS D2
GSB (3)
Myrsol Blue
Thayers original
Guerlain l'eau bloisée

Got a bit of a cold so thought I'd try out the glacial. It was like shaving with Vicks! Struggled with the lather a bit but still managed a smooth shave. The glacial is certainly not one for everyday use!

OMG lather explosion! First time with the Ogallala but it won't be the last. Thick, rich & slick lather. Lather was so thick that the brush would stand upright in the bowl. Very nice 3-pass shave.
