This morning:
Prep: Face wash, Imperial Leather bath soap
Razor: Feather Artist Club RG (wood), Pro blade (1)
Soap: Tabac stick
Brush: Simpson Tulip T2 in two-band Super
Balm: Trumper's Skin Food, West Indian Limes
Scent: Penhaligon's Blenheim Bouquet
Result: very decent
First impressions of my first Simpson (courtesy of Vinny): small, dense, pleasant. Ideal for stick lathering, certainly. We'll try a bowl soap tomorrow.
