Christmas Eve

La Toja cream
Omega silvertip
Gem OCMM
Gem blade
Witch Hazel
TOBS Mr Taylors AS
LEA balm

I'm enjoying bowl lathering creams at the moment, I usually face lather. Loads of great lather this morning. Great shave, BBS result.
 
After the usual 1-2 minute hot towel prep:

vintage butterscotch Ever Ready badger
'Webly'/Personna74 (NOS)
RL Safari SS (NOS)
Lucky Tiger AS and Face Tonic
Floris 'Santal' EdT

Well, it's about time to retire this blade. Just now starting to get a little bit dull, although I could use it a few more times I'm sure. That will make 15 very good shaves from this relic. Pretty amazing.

BBS results,

Martin
