So after yesterday super close shave i needed to change my plans today, the GC-OC was replaced with the AS-D2, i also took the opportunity to give the New Alpha Titanium G4 Synth its first run out, a very nice looking brush.
After showering I used the Proraso Green as a pre shave for the first time, massaging it in and leaving it to be adsorbed into the skin and stubble while i set about preparing the rest of the shave, The OSP had been blooming while in the shower, the new brush is a soap hoover, lots of backbone picking up copious amounts in no time, i set about face lathering and had to give the brush a dip on the first application as the soap needed it, the brush is really nice on the face and gave me a really good covering and easily holding enough for 3 passes.
The AS-D2 just works for me, oh so very comfortable and efficient, i only need 2 passes WTG and a mixed 2nd pass leaving me BBS and super comfortable. I will try some "sharper" blades in as the months go by, although the 7OC Yellow is working well.
Post shave started with the cold water splash face freeze, more Proraso Green and a splash of OSP.
That was a really nice shave.
Have a great day All
