S.O.T.D. Saturday 30th August to Friday 5th September 2014

Hot flannel
TOBS Sandalwood bowl lathered
EJ Chatsworth best badger brush
Bluebeards Revenge Scimitar razor
Lab blue (2)
Alum

Nice shave. TOBS cream still dissipating on the face quite quickly. Not getting as good a lather as I do out of Proraso green.
 
Shave planned for 4 September 2014 ...

Pre: Proraso green pre-shave cream
Soap: Irisch Moos (tub)
Brush: Simpson's M6 TSN-LE, 22mm 2-band Manchurian
Razor: Ikon OSS
Blade: Israeli Crystal SP (1)
Post: Thayer's Lavender witch hazel, followed by Penhaligon's English Fern

I'm really liking this brush. Feels much larger on the face than it's small knot implies. Backbone is excellent while splay and flow-through is great.

Great! I haven't used the Cella for a while and it was nice to bring it out of hibernation this morning.

How do you like the NF Tubby 2 chap? I am thinking about my second brush and want it to be a good all rounder. They seem to have a good rep.

It's excellent. I only face lather and it's great for that with its short loft. Equally good with soft soaps, hard soaps and creams. You won't regret picking one up if you decide on one.
