Nice shave. TOBS cream still dissipating on the face quite quickly. Not getting as good a lather as I do out of Proraso green.

Good stuff, that Bulldog innit Ben?

Very good chap! Doesn't dry your face massively like other face washes I have used. Even better, Tesco had it half price last week. They still have the moisturiser half price so I might give that a shot.
 
Pre: Proraso green pre-shave cream
Soap: Irisch Moos (tub)
Brush: Simpson's M6 TSN-LE, 22mm 2-band Manchurian
Razor: Ikon OSS
Blade: Israeli Crystal SP (1)
Post: Thayer's Lavender witch hazel, followed by Penhaligon's English Fern

I'm really liking this brush. Feels much larger on the face than it's small knot implies. Backbone is excellent while splay and flow-through is great.
 
Bi-weekly shave

Brush: Semogue 1800 (Porugal)
Cream: Henckel Shaving Cream (Israel)
Razor: R41(Doitchland)
Blade: Viking Sword (Israel)

Everyone should try this cream, it is hard to get hold of but it is lathering like a Tobs.

It's excellent. I only face lather and it's great for that with its short loft. Equally good with soft soaps, hard soaps and creams. You won't regret picking one up if you decide on one.
