Prep: Hot wash with dove soap.
Brush: Grooming co Synthetic badger.
Soap: LEA Mentholated cream.
Razor: Razorock Jaws open comb.
Blade: Crystal SS.
Post: Prorasso Green AS.

I tried the newly delivered LEA Mentholated cream, lathered ok but might be better with a different brush as I am still getting used to the synthetic. Not much cussion but good enough. Left my skin feeling cool and fresh, finished off with the Prorasso Green AS.

I will try this cream again next time but with my horse hair brush to see if it makes any difference.
