Professor Blighty's Universal Shaving Balsalm - Tuxedo

Nice smooth blade for a sore face. Although I don't find the personna 74 particularly smooth I think bad lathering and bad choice of razor for that particular blade yesterday was to blame.
No offence to dodgy intended :eek:)

I've been away this weekend on a friends stag night(s) so had a fair amount of stubble. This was easily dealt with when I got home. I got a few weepers on my neck but I put this down to feeling less than 100%.

Monday:

LEA Sensitive cream
Omega Silvertip
Muhle R89
Astra SP (3)
TOBS Mr. Taylors AS

BBS results, I've been thoroughly impressed with the soap, creams and balm from LEA.
 
Today, "eucaliptus" shave!

Pre Prep + Jabonman Eucalipto-menta-pino-árbol de té + Vie&Long 13064 horse hair + Rotbart 15.5 with Crystal #3 + Myrsol Agua de Limón "alum" + Razorock Wax Eucaliptus

A really smooth shave, this Jabonman soap is one of the best I have ever tried taking care of my skin, the proof is that a so alcoholic splash like this Myrsol didn't "hurt" me almost nothing, hehe

Cheers!
 
Monday:

Merkur HD 34c
7 o'clock Super Platinum (Russian)
Neep box wood silvertip
Nanny's Lavender soft soap

Back in blade experimentation mode - I've used these Super Platinums in the HD for the last three shaves and they've been superb. I've previously had decent results from the 7 o'clock yellows and greens, but these are my favourites so far.
