Saturday

NF 2221 mountain badger
vintage Crabtree & Evelyn pour homme soap
Crabtree & Evelyn Sienna ASB
Quorom aftershave
 
SATURDAY

Gold Bostonian
Gillette Super Stainless (2)
Beejay Amber
Arko stick (face lathered)
Witch hazel
Castle Forbes AS balm
Lavanda AS

Lovely shave and a real lavander hit courtesy of the balm and the AS.
 
This evening:

Prep: Hot shower (not a good one, washing machine running elsewhere in the building)
Razor: Feather Artist Club RG (wood), Pro blade (12)
Soap: Proraso white
Brush: Neep #955 soapstone silvertip badger
Aftershave: Prof Blighty's Yellow Ginger
Result: lovely

The Blighty aftershave smells and feels great. Experimented with a paint-only (as opposed to swirl) face lather; don't think it made any real difference apart from being a tad slower, though it may vary brush to brush. Blade still highly usable; may try a third week.

It is four weeks to the day since I cut my jawline, and it is now only really noticeable if you're looking for it. Hurrah.
 
Sunday:

40s Superspeed
Feather (1)
Vitos Coconut
Witch Hazel

L'Occitane CADE soap + Lijun Finest Badger + Merkur 37c Slant with Polsilver #1 + Thayers Lavender "alum" + L'Occitane CADE balm with HBG Bay Rum lotion

A superb shave! CADE soap is really easy to make foam, and its quality is well known. What can I say of the balm version, hehe

Cheers!
 
Saturday evening:

Hot shower, RSC facial scrub (running low dammit, have to find some more)
Grieg - Holberg Suite
Gillette Slim Adjustable M3 (same as me!)
Merkur blade, on the third and last outing. Bit tuggy in use now.

Three passes, reasonable shave, finished off with some Sunbury Bay Rum and a wee dab of RSC balm.

Sunday morning shave:

Da Vinci 'Uomo' brush
