Planned Shave of 07 August 2014 ...

 

[jds]

Thursday vii August, 2014

Prep: Hot shower, Bulldog Original Facewash
Pre: Cold water splash
Brush: New Forest Tubby 2
Soap: Mama Bear's Rosemary & Mint Shave Stick
Razor: Merkur Digress HD
Blade: Personna Med #2
Post: Floïd "The Genuine", Floïd Bálsamo After Shave
Fragrance: Guerlain Mouchoir de Monsieur

Result: An improvement on previous days for the Mama Bear's soap - more water to the brush and face seemed to do the trick. Still trying to sniff out that Rosemary, though.

All the best,

Jon

THURSDAY 7/8/14
Shower
No pre today
Proraso green soap
E/J 89 for the first 2 passes
Braveheart for 3rd pass and touch ups
Aqua Velva splash

I find that the EJ does not provide a BBS shave which I suspect is down to my skills so I use the Braveheart to finish the last pass.
