Geo F. Trumper's Limes shaving cream
1875 blade - even Google Goggles can't translate this for me.
Progress 1.5, 1
Scent from Heaven Escape moisturising cream

Very nice, smooth shave. Removed most of the stubble in the first pass. Second and third was a bit better than DFS. Decent performer.

Hi,

How do you get on with your R&G Soap? I have some and for the life of me cannot sustain the lather to 3 passes. I love the scent though, so loathe to get rid of it.

Greetings

Friday 28th December 2012
Prep: Shower
Razor: GEM Micromatic Clog-pruf
Blade: GEM Stainless Coated
Brush: Omega 39 Boar
Cream: T.O.B.S. Sandalwood
Aftershave: Wilkinson Sword Sensitive Balm

It makes a nice change to use cream now and again as I usually use soaps. This Sandalwood is the only cream (or soap) I have where the scent lingers beyond the cold water rinse.

Regards
Dick.
 
Friday:

Nanny's French Lavender soap
Semogue SOC Boar
Gem Micromatic Clog Pruf
Gem blade
Witch Hazel
Prof Blighty's Harlequin AS

Really great shave this morning. Super smooth and comfortable.
