The 28th's Near-Forgotten Face Frolics:
English New OC, Sputnik
Hand-Carved Beech 2-Band Finest 24mm
LEA Sensitive Cream (Ta Smallbeard!)
Barbershop Bay Rum
Astral
Givenchy Xeryus EdT (Ta dodgy!)
Monday's Ministrations:
Gillette #58, Gillette Silver Blue
Hand-carved Ash Boar 27mm
Trumper's Coconut Soap
Barbershop Bay Rum
AA Bay Citrus PSB
Yardley Citrus & Wood EdT
Grand results both times and I was especially pleased to get the New working for me but then these Sputters just seem to work in every razor. Thon Silver Blue was also very good but then I remember using one that 782SirBrian PIF'd me a while back (thanks fella). T'was great to experience the wonderful, intoxicating scent of Barbershop Bay Rum after my brief sojourn at Mater's and today, I am very much enjoying the Yardley EdT which has a distinct orangey note in the citrus. It's nicely tempered by the wood base and really smells like it says on the box. Back to the old folks for New Year!

valobra almond shaving soap
weleda AS balm

excellent, irritation free close shave. second shave in with the 2013 r41, and its a fantastic razor. muhle have done a great job in tweaking the 2011 design, it retains the close shave but way more user friendly.

Schick M adjustable injector
Schick Platinum
Edwin Jagger boar
TOBS Coconut shaving cream
Bluebeard's Revenge aftershave balm
Great shave. Just need to remember to be judicious with these (well, all my) injector blades as I have roughly 40 times as many DE blades as injector ones. I also need to start using some of my cartridges up. Made some early headway this week by mainly using creams (shaving and aftershave creams) and the TOBS coconut is one I forgot I had (!)
