Kent BK4
Tabac
1955 British Gillette Flare Tip Rocket
Gillette 365 (Indian) (3)
Time for a proper billiard ball shave - straight over the top of the head. I am Errol Brown lately of Hot Chocolate, with skin pigmentation loss.

Best badger brush by Neo
Flare tip Rocket
New Iridium Super
Real Shaving Co. "Professional Formula" shaving cream
Tabac aftershave
I only mention this on account of the Poundland cream, which is impressive stuff, easily standing comparison with Taylors for the quality of the lather, and with a pleasant unobtrusive scent which reminds me of fruitcake mix before you bake it: candied peel maybe? My personal shopper will be picking up another fiver's worth of these today, hopefully.

Today was swine flu vaccination day so, naturally, I needed to shave prior to the jab.

A very good shave.
I simply had to impress the nurses and impressed they seemed too. They were obviously too discreet to mention my BBS! :roll:

Futur
Lord Super Stainless
Simpson's Best Badger Special
Penhaligon's English Fern Soap
Clinique Post Shave Healer
Penhaligon's English Fern edt
The Lord was the same as I remember from ages ago; better than a Derby, but still not quite good enough.
I picked up a bottle of the Clinique stuff yesterday. Seems to go on quite nicely and do the job it describes.

Dear SuperThin how much I adore thee... this is causing some thought of some blade rationalisation :?

Straight razor - two passes
Jagger DE87/Crystal Platinum - one ATG pass and tidy up
Connaught Peppermint cream
shavemac 177 silvertip
DR Harris milk moisturiser
Really enjoyable shave. Very smooth and comfortable now. Don't know if I will ever want to give up using my DE for a final tidy up. The straight has definitely produced a better skin texture after my shave. Don't really know how better to describe it.
Blowing a gale here!

Sunday:
Wilkinson 'Sticky' / Kai Blade
Simpson Duke 2 (Pure)
Mitchell's Wool Fat
Boots Freshwood Aftershave
Caron Yatagan EDT
Kai blade worked well in this very mild razor.
Can't believe how good the Boots aftershave is. Might have to dig out the soap again.
