late post but I'm on holiday, so...

Sunday

Feather AC RG midnight wood scales
'Light' blade (#3)
Omega 48
Castle Forbes Lime shave cream
Proraso after shave lotion
Fitjar Folgefonn Mint after shave balm
YSL Kouros old formulation

third consecutive with the Artist Club and it starts to get just a bit boring
but this is the exact reason we have DE and traditional straight shaving as well

off to the beach in a sec, it'll be 36 deg C today here...

have a good week chaps
 
Saturday
NF silvertip
Provence Sante
Merkur HD + astra (1)
Alum
Natural Limes A/S
Natural Limes Balm

Sunday
Neo Custom 2 Band
Nannys Ice and Slice with goat
Merkur HD + astra (2)
Natural Limes A/S
Natural Limes Balm

Astra blades - they are good for me, but not the best I think.
 
Yesterday:
Muhle R41/ Yellow 7'Clock
Thater #2
Speik
GFT Coral SKin Food

Today...exactly the same. Can't believe I waited so long to try Speik. Really wish this soap was available on the highstreet here.
 
Sunday shave was interesting, staying at my late Granddad's house and found a Merkur in the cabinet. slipped in a NOS Merkur blade, PS soap and went for it.

I can see why so many love a DE, easy and very close shave for my first with it.

Added to my arsenal :)
