That's interesting, I would've thought a flat top easier to splay.

SOTD 25/7/20

Brush- Omega 10077 synthetic
Blade- Astra SP
Razor - Merkur 34c
Soap- Signature soaps Eboracum

My first use of a signature soap today. I've read so many good reviews on the soaps but I always like to try these things and make my own mind up, but when it comes to these...the hype is justified. They're lather monsters with great slickness and cushion. An easy 2 pass shave with no nicks or cuts.

I used the Eboracum & what I liked about the soap is the scent. It does what it says on the tin. Too often I find I can smell one real note of the listed scents on soaps and nothing of the rest. Not this. What you read on the lid is exactly what you smell, cedarwood and peppermint and somehow they appear to your nose in that order as well. Brilliant soap from @BrianH and a nice fella to boot.

Great little brush that Omega as well for very little money. My first synthetic and I'm chuffed with it.

Have a safe and enjoyable weekend everyone.

Happy birthday Chris. If I wasn't so bloody ugly I would contend your most handsome man claims. But being your birthday I will let you off with your fake claims.
