Greetings,
A new set up to start the weekend,it's been a while since i last paired my Fatip Grande up with a gillette sharpedge, a great combo,very smooth & efficient.
It's the maiden shave of the Anbbas Boar Brush which was another christmas gift to myself, a wonderful brush which i've gave a few hand latherings with a palmolive shave stick a cold water soaking for 1 hour finishing off with a johnsons baby shampoo & Cien tea tree oil conditioner wash, and a final warm water rinse this got rid of any packaging loose hairs & nasties. It has plenty of backbone and a nice amount of scritch, even after the pre soak & wash it did shread a few hairs while mixng the lather but,like most of the Boar brushes i have it'll be ok and perform wonderfully after it's 'Broken in' period.
The Maca Root cream provided me with a superb slick protective lather for my shave, of which i've finally taught myself what quantity of cream to use for my shave, instead of having enough to shave four people.
A wonderful 3 pass + pickups DFS with no errors to report.
Finish the shave off with a generous splash of Benjamins~ Mentholated Bay Rum A/S.
My face is feeling smooth & smelling devine.
Enjoy the start of the weekend, ladies & gentlemen.
