Wednesday:
Merkur 37 slant
Feather blade
TOBS lavender cream
Penhaligon brush
L'Occitane verdon splash
Birthday shave on the big four-oh. Ugh. Thanks for the wishes.
Really nice shave, third day on a slant bar feather combo, still going well and no soreness which to be honest i was expecting.
Day of meetings in town followed by a session in the pub on the way home I think.

Still using La Toja products. A good&smooth shave, gentlemen!
BTW I've been using this Super Adjustable this weekend and I liked a lot: it's getting better shaves than the Slim I got some time ago.
Cheers!
Wednesday:
Afternoon, gents.
Prep: Claus Porto Lime oil face soap
Razor: EJ DE89
Blade: Astra Superior stainless (3)
Brush: Vulfix Grosvenor Bodger
Shave soap: Arko stick
A/S: Adidas Dynamic Pulse
I haven't been shaving for a couple of days because of a heavy cold. The Edwin Jagger and Astra just cut through the stubble like the proverbial hot knife: it's nice to be smooth again. Unfortunately I've lost my sense of smell and taste, not permanently I hope, so just splashed on some Dynamic Pulse which might as well have been slightly stingy water for all I could tell. Looking forward to trying out the rest of Martin's samples soon, though.

WEDNESDAY EVENING
Gillette Slim Twist
Rapira Swedish (2)
Simpsons Emperor 2 2-band
Body Shop Maca Root cream - scuttle lathered
Witch hazel
Bulldog AS balm
Small nick on a mole on my face and a slight stinging (must be allergic to something in the Body Shop cream) aside, this was another fantastic shave from this razor.
I'm gibbering about how great it is on another forum and they're all rushing off to get one!
