...Brush looks great...+1 on the Oud Isphahan...View attachment 26473 SOTD Thursday 29th June
Prep....Shower, olive oil soap
Razor....Schick E2
Blade....Schick Proline B-20
Soap....Mitchell's wool fat
Brush....Blademonkey Boar
Post....BBA post shave balm
Scent....Oud Isphahan EDP
I whipped up a fabulous lather in my newly aquired Little wren bowl with the Blademonkey boar, the MWF produced a rich thick creamy lather in no time at all, my Trusty E2 now fitted out with a B-20 blade made short work of my stubble, it was sharp and very smooth in the E2, a little smoother than a Chick blade I think. I was as smooth I require and my standards for smoothness are high ! BBA post shave balm....it's so good, it really is . My skin is looking and feeling great.
I used an EDP I have not used since the winter , Oud Isphahan , warm and spicy recomended to me a long time back by @wayne mattison, the first in a long line of enabelers I've come across since! It's great stuff though so thank you Wayne
Wishing you all a fab Thursday.......
I've noticed that Feather's seem to be so much more mellow on their second (and subsequent) outings as well!
May I recommend the OSP Lavender and also the bay rum, these can be purchased from the English shaving company if you can not find on the OSP website.Greetings All,
Thursday shave.
One days' growth and warm shave
Preparation – showered with face washed with Clique Liquid facial soap (mild)
Pre: Prorosa white pre-share
Soap: OSP – Barbershop Soap
Razor: Merkur 34c
Blade: Shark (3rd)
Brush: RazoRock 400 Noir
Post Shave: Cold water rinse, Alum, cold rinse, followed by Proraso aftershave lotion (red) and Nivea 2 Phase
Shark on the third use and still not disappointing.
The OSP Barbershop is a new soap for me and an awesome lather was whipped up with my Razorock 400. I think I must try more of the OSP range.
Stuck to my changed routine to see if that would help my neck irritation and showered before I shaved, although I changed it slightly and had no Proraso on the second pass. Maybe it was the soap's slickness but the result, a little bit of irritation, not as bad as usual.
thank you, the brush feels great in use and fits nicely in the palm of my hand, I'm proper happy with it...Brush looks great...+1 on the Oud Isphahan...

Omega 49
Supermax twin blade disposable
Skin Bracer
Boots #7 balm
Using up some razors that have been hanging around unused. I think this was my first time using a disposable since starting using DEs some years back. Top notch quick shave, 99% BBS, and no sting with the AS. Must say I preferred it to using the Sensor I very occasionally use, nice not to have the lube strip snail trail that puts me right off modern carts.
