Another morning shave for me.


 
warm water splash
EJ89 handle, tech head
404 Bodger
personna blue (2)
menthol pre-shave oil
nanny's soft soap lavender/lavanda cream
alcohado menthol splash

lovely combo of lavender and menthol. i don't always use the pre-shave oil but found a real positive effect on the shave today. the EJ89 handle was a good weight with the tech head and the blade was still very smooth.

I enjoyed that shave - definitely a combo i'll use again.
