This morning:
Bulldog face wash
Feather Artist Club RG, ProGuard blade (5)
Truefitt and Hill no. 10 cream
New Forest High Mountain Badger
Bulldog ASB
Trumper's GFT cologne
Two passes with a cold water rinse in between and a tiny touchup. Excellent.

Friday evening shave.
EJ DE 89 Barley
Unnamed blade (no markings at all)
Nanny's french lavender hard shaving soap.
New Forest brush.
Two passes.
Nice shave.
Marvellous soap. I had expected great things, I am only sorry to say that nanny's lime soft soap has been knocked to number two position in the rankings.
Followed up with a tingle-free rub of alum, some old spice AS and a dab of clinique post shave healer.
Lovely.

Razor: 34C
Blade: 7 o'clock yellow
Brush: Le Tuft Beehive
Soap: Trumpers Almond
Post: Nivea sensitive
I've had this soap for about 3 weeks. I just couldn't get a good lather from it.
So today I adopted a few techniques. These were the upside down load and a wet brush. Rather than go straight to the face, I then palm lathered until the lather was thick, then hit the face. 2 dabs of water later... Perfect
Bit of a faff for sure, but I'll stick with this soap now for a few weeks and see if I can speed things up.
