So I have been away from real wet shaving for the best part of a couple of years. I slipped in to cartridge and canned goop for ease of use. With a weeks holiday At home I decided to dig out some stuff from the back of the cupboard and have a bash at it again. I’m so glad I did, I have the bug again. This is shave number two after using my fatboy for the Platinum Jubilee shave. A very decent two pass nine out of ten shave.
Razor - Colonial Razors General with UFO Colibri handle.
Blade - Captain Titan Mild.
Brush - Unknown, I can’t remember when or where I got it. I think it’s synthetic but it’s great for face lathering.
Soap - Kathmandu by Tcheon Fung Sing. Very nice summer soap that doesn’t break the bank. Easy to lather and gives good glide.
Post shave - Cold water rinse followed by some cheap balm (I must get some better stuff).
After shave - Old Spice Original. This is the original formulation which I imported from India as they haven’t messed about with it. Smells like it did to me in the 1980’s.
