Tuesday

Neo custom 2 band
Provence Sante soap
Muhle R41 (old) + Bic chrome (3)
Thayers superhazel
Proraso ASB

result: 3 passes + touch ups. A comfortable shave, but not as smooth as it normally is.. Wonder if it the proraso pre post that makes the difference?
 
Tuesday:

Merkur 37C Slant
Feather blade
TOBS lavender cream
Penhaligons brush
DR Harris Pink aftershave

Really good... I rarely use a slant bar 2 days on the trot and I rarely use a Feather blade but this combo has worked very well, it gets a third run out tomorrow on my 40th birthday.

Still enough work going on in the house generating mess that I don't want to have brushes out, but back at work, so my morning shave was (again) Noxzema Cocoa Butter and the Artist Club RG. Very nice too.

Same again, and likely to be so all week. I'll probably not post until I get something more interesting out :).

The RG works so well with this (admittedly excellent) foam that I'm tempted to try it with a modern gel... or even a KoS-style oil!
