This morning:
Prep: Face wash, Imperial Leather bath soap, cold
Razor: Myers & Son 6/8"Â hollow ground
Brush: Neep #955 soapstone ball and bobbin silvertip
Soap: D R Harris almond
Aftershave: Prof Blighty's Rosewood
Scent: L'Occitane Verveine
The stone brushes Rod makes just feel fantastic in the hand. If I could only have one brush it would be one of my three stone Neeps.

Last night:
Scent from Heaven Frankincense shaving soap
Red Tip (new to me although I have tried one before) with Polsilver Stainless
Boots Freshwood aftershave splash
Super-smooth but not as close as I was expecting

Razor:Kron Vest "Jaguar" 14 (15/16)
Strop:Handmade felt&horsehide (20/60)
Brush:Vulfix Grosvenor+Simpson superbadger
lather:Tabula Rasa Herbs SC
AS: Eau d'Émeraude
EdT:Loewe pour Homme
Comments: One month ago I visited a hairdresser, elivelimen, in San Sebastian (Basque country, North of Spain) but I couldn't have an haircut because he was too busy, but the barber gives me some samples of Tabula Rasa creams, that were being sold in his store. He trusted a lot this creams and, after some uses, I understand his opinion very well. They are easy to face lather, the later don't dry and the glide and protection are top quality. Today this features have been convenient, I've used a spanish razor, full hollow ground, very aggressive, that have not taken prisoners among the hairs of my beard,....All of them have been merciless eliminated
. In contrast I have less feel the alcohol of the distilled "Émeraude" aftershave, not in the nose, it smells like brandy, fortunately for few seconds. I finish wearing a classical spanish cologne: Loewe pour Homme, a scent in the way of Floris Elite, but a bit fresher and "raw".
