Pre-shave - Warm shower, facewask with Caurnie Organic Nettle Soap.
Razor - Rex Ambassador (level 3).
Blade - Astra Stainless Steel (day 2).
Soap - OSP Barbour Shop Shaving Cream.
Brush - Simpsons Duke 2 Best Badger.
Bowl - Aesop Stainless Steel.
Post shave - OSP Barbour Shop Aftershave Tonic.
I had a fabulous shave on Sunday: iKon Tech; Vitos Eucalyptus cream; Simpsons Duke 2 - 2 pass BBS - no issues. Today I felt I only needed a 1 pass shave this morning.
Today's shave was excellent, I'm really enjoying the Rex Ambassador and the iKon Tech. However, I decided to go for the Rex, as I did not want to get greedy with the iKon Tech; it felt as if I may get bitten today - the shave gods won't allow 2 surperb shaves on the trot
It felt as if it was going to be hot and sticky up here today - I wanted a nice fresh scent so went for the OSP Barbour Shop, which did the trick.
I can't remember weather this hot, for so long - since 1990 (what a summer - just before I started Uni - decent summer job - and other memories I won't mention in case SWMBO pops into TSR for a look ;-) ). For me the benefits of DE and wet shaving on the skin, really come to light in hot weather - no skin irritation; good products which leave the skin feeling clean and smooth.
All the best,
Chris
