Prep: Valobra Glycerlanolina soap, Myrsol Emulsion
Brush: M&F / Brad Sears Finest Badger
Soap: Stirling Margaritas In The Arctic
Razor: ATT SE1 / UFO Tornado
Blade: Schick Proline P-30 (3)
Post: Thursday Plantation Tea Tree & Witch Hazel, CRSW Alcohol-Free American Barbershop Moisturising Aftershave
Scent: Dior Eau Sauvage

It is extremely hot in most areas of the Great Southern Land, and menthol soaps are a blessed relief at this time of year.
The short loft of the 26mm knot M&F brush is fantastic for soap loading, and soon had a good load ready to go. I initially bowl lathered using the blue Timeless bowl, then transferred to the face to finish the process. Was DFS+ after two passes, and BBS after the third, with a lovely post shave.
I had thought that this would be the final shave with this tin of Stirling Soap, but she has one more left in her!

I knew you would like your Ikon 102, Russell.
Silver Blues, Astra SP and Voskhod pair quite well with it.

Lovely 2 passer. I know we are in Winter and the snow is flying but I do love the scent of Fall's Lumberjack or just Lumberjack as it is labelled now. The Yaqi 24mm Sagrada Familia was a perfect face lathering machine.
