Nice BBS 3 pass shave today, the brush performed brilliantly today, don't know if its because I am getting used to a synthetic now or cause its impossible to get a bad lather from Professors soaps. No nicks, weepers or razor burn, just smooth soft and great smelling skin cant stop feeling the smoothness. I had around 3 days of vegetation but the Jaws OC swallowed it up with no effort. It took a while to get used to the very long handle of this razor but I am getting great results every time I use this now.

The in laws bought me a bottle of AÄ“sop 'Moroccan Neroli Shaving Serum' - http://www.aesop.com/uk/skin-care-1/shave/moroccan-neroli-shaving-serum2.html - for Christmas. It doesn't hold a candle to proper shaving soap; the glide is fine but the protection is minimal.

SATURDAY MORNING



Razor: Koraat 'Basic' (gawd knows why Ulrik calls it a basic, just look at it!)
Strops: Waterhouse Linen\Leather, Westholme Cordovan
Brush: Semogue 2011 LE boar 2
Soap: Stirling frozen tundra
AS: Lucky Tiger
Balm: GFT sandalwood skin food
EDT: AdP Colonia

Crikey, this is a really good razor. 20 laps on linen, 25 on leather and 25 on cordovan had it pinging hair like a good un.

Glided across my face and gave me one of the best straight shaves I've ever had. Smoother than Smooth Jack McSmooth.

Finished with a few blasts of one of my favourite EDTs. Spot on!
