The Signature soaps i have in the den are all brilliant, today i used the Coria which is becoming a favourite scent.
I had a really enjoyable face lather from the soap and Chubby synth, the brush holding lots of lather from very little loading, i also remove the remnants of the mixed soap and dab the "tin's wet croap" around the face with my finger.
Today i used the 2nd Kropp of the set and decided to start with my left hand, the first strokes had me thinking this one was not as sharp as #1. however, once i had switched hands the razor smoothed right out.
The second pass i carefully adjusted the angle i have with my left hand and all went well. 2 full WTG passes leaving me with a DFS result.
I am happy with that, i think it will be a while before i can get anywhere near BBS with a straight although i am happy that the finish i get is easily an acceptable shave for any occasion.
A rub of the Alum block told me things are improving with just a little indication under the nose and a small area on the LH side of the neck.
A very nice post shave finishing everything off.
Feeling and smelling pretty good after that effort.
Stay Safe and enjoy your day All.
A superb picture for sure, but the brush really is a 10/10 stunner, from the handle to the shape of the knot (I love the look and functionality of a fan shaped knot) it looks like an absolute cracker. I hope it performs as well as it looks.
