Christmas morning shave as we're out later.
Great lather from signature soaps Hibernia with a citrus note to compliment the champagne!
Loving the brass asylum razor bought recently from Marco / Missoni on here. The more aggressive head works nicely with an Astra blade on a few days growth.
Went to take the photo and my lovely cat April wondered what I was doing!
A very Happy Christmas to all of you.

A lovely Christmas shave today with gifts. The L'occitane face soap is nice and the P&B Spitfire is a fantastic smelling soap! I can also see why there's a lot of love for Pitralon.
 
And quite simply my theme for today's shave was 'Wishing everyone a happy Christmas'

Christmas - Brass Hone
Navidad - Feather
Milad - Cadman 30mm Tuxedo
聖誕 - Penhaligon's Bayolea
рождество - Dior Eau Sauvage

Last night at 10pm on the river one of the other boats gave me a call on the radio,

'Okay Chris we' re standby tug now, in you go'
'What. You are kidding?'
'No, and have a happy Christmas'

Happy days and so managed to get today at home with the family.........and of course get a proper Christmas shave. Even happier days

So one great shave and feeling as good as it gets

Did I also mention this is not only my Christmas shave but also my birthday shave? Ah well may be I didn't

Have a great Christmas day to all and your families

And why not? Couldn't be without something Japanese and in this case, bizarre



And decided to plug this one on the end as well just to show all these Japanese girly bands are not just there for their cute looks. they are also for Christmas
