El Cheapo 
Prep : warm water
Razor : Ying Jili
Brush : Omega boar
Blade : Wilkinson Sword
Soap : Palmolive Men shaving cream
Bowl : Aliexpress (MÜHLE look-a-like, white)
Alum : De Vergulde Hand
After shave : no aftershave this evening
The white MÜHLE look-a-like shaving bowl arrived last week from uncle Alie
Athough it's a very cheap razor, I kinda like the Ying Jili, smooth, efficient. I wonder how they do it : €1,66 including shipping.
My next SOTD will be with the Palmolive shaving stick. Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow it should arrive. Dutch post service says tomorrow, amazon.de says day after tomorrow, we'll see

Hi Paul.
You could choose worse soaps to do a Months stint. Am off DE Razors but that Rex is starting to look cool.

Omega 11126 boar
De Vergulde hand
PAL S/S Adjustable
Schick single S/S- Japan [ 6 ]
Jaguar Prestige A/S Lotion
A very easy Shave today as not too much re growth after an ultra close shave yesterday with the Occams V2. Quite pleased at the overall quality of finish attained without any problems. Shame that Dutch soap appears to have disappeared from the UK market place as it produces an excellent lather.
PS Just discovered that Yourshaving , stock it and their postage is reasonable compared with other European stockists.
