Razor: Mars Razor plate 6
Blade: Astra SP, 3rd use
Brush: Yaqi Freedom Italian Flag 24mm Cashmere
Bowl: Captains Choice Copper Lather Bowl Standard Bowl
Preshave: PAA Cube Unscented Soap
Soap: Signature Hibernia Puck
Aftershave: Yaqi/Master Soap Creations Lemon, Lime And Cedarwood Aftershave
Balm: Bart's Balm BEN KILBRECK Balm

Back to the Mars and it’s far to say I love it still so much so I’m tempted to let my Twig go. Smooth and easy, but with more soul than the Twig, the unique head really delivers an ultra smooth shave every time. The Signature get better with every use and probably would have half the soaps I have in my collection if I’d discovered it earlier.
A great shave from start to finish!
Enjoy your evening guys.

Brush Yaqi 24mm Cavern Lake 2 Band Badger
Razor Fatip OC Slant
Blades Persona X Series 2nd
Aftershaves Stirling Witchhazel Wintergreen + Clubman Gents Gin
A really good soap! The scent is getting better and the lather is just impeccably creamy and slick...nice!!
This shave with the cranky but excellent razor (long-ignored) paired with the mysteree-X blade was even better. Smoother, comfortable, and more efficient. 3passes for an absolutely bbs finish. Nice!! My favorite Clubman aftershave is terrific!!

Just the way to finish the week. Donkeys and bananas. A truly awesome shave after a couple of days of facial neglect and a most enjoyable way to enter in to the weekend. New haircut to throw in to the bargain and a stone lighter to boot. Presently on a diabetes prevention weight loss programme and appear to be winning. Top banana all the way.

The Neroli Woods was a great reminder as to what a first class summer scent it is. Viva la republica

The wonderful and appropriate Melt Banana to see the week out. Not completely girly but damn good and a band the Beaver list as being an influence. Have great weekends you shavateers and take my love with you. If you don't want to, perfectly understandable

Pre - Shower
Brush - Razorock 400 Plissoft Syn
Soap - Williams Mug Shaving Soap
Razor - Razorock Hawk V3 "A"
Blade - Feather Pro Guard
Post - Cold water Rinse, TC's infused Witch Hazel
Balm - E45 / Argan oil
A/S - Williams Aqua Velva Formula 1
Wk17  (7).JPG

I really enjoyed that, the ProGuard still going strong and it is well into double figures.
I do not use the Williams as much these days, therefore, next month may well be Mitchells and Mug-soap May just to swap it around a bit.
Stay safe and enjoy your day all.
