I did had planned a different set-up but changed my mind while I was in the shower.
I've been testing The Traditional Shaving Company cream over the last two shaves so I thought it would be a good idea to compare it to my favourite cream, Grafton.

From what Matthew @traditionalshaving has said he's trying to produce a product to the same standards as T&H but at a more affordable price.
Comparing the two creams I think he's done a good job. Both perform well with Grafton edging it on all fronts.

Be careful out there...

This YaQi brush has lovely soft tips and the glue bump gives it good backbone. In fact I've just received another Tuxedo from YaQi today. Very impressed with choice, quality and of course price. A return to the 1912 was much appreciated.

That "Snowman" is stunning Rob and it photographs so well with the Grafton.
Great set up. :)
