Pre shave prep: Pears Transparent Original
Brush: Vintage Vulfix Service #3
Soap: NOS Vintage Cussons 1950's
Razor: K2 Gillette SS 1965 Tech
Blade: NOS Perma Sharp Supreme (1)
Post Shave: Alum Block, cold water splash, homemade Witch Hazel with added oils
Balm: Proraso Red Balm
Aftershave: Old Spice Classic/Copycat Oud wood
A Tech Shave & one of those shaves where everything just clicks,
Again very slick Lather from the Vintage Brush and Soap, this brush is a great face painter, quite a strong brush although soft on the face.
The Tech and Perma Sharp are a match made in razor heaven for me (1st time match up for me), giving a smooth and comfortable 2 pass shave. I forgot how good the Tech is, spending recent months trying all the acquired vintage & new stuff. Such a mild but efficient razor leaving the face comfortable and squeaky BBS. Only 2 passes required this morning WTG & ATG/XTG mix.
Nothing from the block, a cold water splash and a rub of witch hazel.
A Proraso Red Balm massage and a splash of Old Spice Classic, as it softened i added a few squirts of CC Oud Wood (that's the sample spray finished, glad i have a 100ml to go at).
A clean and tidy chin, smelling Grande and off to Visit the Mothership.
Have a great Sunday all.
