Hi Paul.
The "Streamline" is very much a Marmite Razor, I do not like Marmite but love the "Streamline" and its associates. Before the advent of the AC/SE Razors this was the Razor I would choose if I needed a Special occasion Shave. I am still looking for a User grade one so I can make up a " Jewel
combination set, with one of my other ones.

Monday 12 August

Soap - Intesa Cream
Brush - Omega 10075
Razor - Lord L6 & Souplex Bakelite Handle
Blade - Gillette Winner (4)
Post - Witch Hazel/Intesa Glacial Lotion
AS - Akcay Tobacco

Two pass shave this morning instead of 3 passes as I seemed to have less growth than usual in the 24 hours since my last shave. Not bad results from 2 passes, good on my cheeks but not as close as I'd like on my jaws.

Anyway chaps, have a good start to the week.

Pre shave Prep: Pears Original Transparent
Brush: Yaqi Sagrada Familia

Post shave: Alum Block, cold water splash, Homemade Bay Rum Witch Hazel
Balm: Bayliss & Harding Black Pepper and Ginseng / Bart's Balm lime oil

Another great comfortable BBS shave with the Futur from 3 easy passes WTG #3, XTG & ATG on #2.5.
A good slick lather in the Stephen Llewellyn bowl with the smaller Yaqi SF, it seems to suit my smaller brushes.
A change up in the post shave with a nice result from the B&H and Bart's Lotion & old Spice, leaving me BBS, Comfortable & Smelling very clean and fresh.
Enjoy your afternoon All.
