Prep: Hot wash with Dove soap.
Soap: Figaro.
Brush: Vie-long Horse.
Razor: 1966 Gillette Slim Adjustable #4
Blade: Crystal Super Stainless.
Post: Cien Balm.

Three pass almost BBS shave today I do like the smell of the Figaro croap, but after the application for my second pass it started to tingle, I don't know if it was the figaro or if I had scraped some skin there is no sign of irritation or redness however I do like the almond scent of this croap and it produced shed loads of lather from very little product and the lather is slick. Finished off with some Cien AS balm from LIDL.

⁂ brush: Semogue 1250 (boar)
⁂ razor: HTGAM Symmetry
⁂ blade: Fresh Personna Platinum
⁂ croap: Cella
⁂ asl: Brut

Finally getting the hang of the Symmetry OC, she gets along really well with the Personna P it seems.
WTG was more than enough for 80% hair reduction.. 2nd XTG pass to while away the time :)
