Sunday Night
Dovo Prima Silver Steel razor
Nanny's Ice & a Slice Hard Soap
Frank Shaving Synthetic Brush
Alum
Old Spice Whitewater AS
Well its been a few weeks since my last SOTD post. Life brings along the way some distractions and there have been a truck load recently, some of which I could well do without but you've got to take the rough with the smooth.
Anyway things are settling down and so I'm hoping to contribute a little more regularly again. I've included some cherry blossom in todays picture to mark the Spring albeit that the blossom was detached from the trees here by heavy rain and wind but summer is on its way, or at least it better be!
Today was also my 1st usage with the FS Synthetic brush, early days but I must say I was impressed.
Have a great week gentlemen.

Gillette Fatboy on 6 with Gillette Platinum (2nd shave)

Vitos almond soap
Henk walnut silvertip brush

Everything really came together this morning. Fantastic lather after a good prep and blade worked as if new in the Fatboy. Close, no nicks and no irritation. Hurrah!

Fatboy on 7, 5 with 7 o'clock green
EJ pure badger
Ingram
RSC balm
Close and comfortable. 2nd shave with the Fatboy and I really like it. Had to put some effort in on my neck, but that's no different to any other razor I've used so far.

Permasharp blade..second use......ready for replacing after two shaves
Trumper's Violet Cream...face lathered as opposed to the bowl,nearly finished must get some more
Frank Finest Badger
Nivea cream to moisturise...the thick cream in the blue tin...better for me than the sensitive balm which gives me irritation.
Three pass shave ...BBS finish

Speick cream + Simpson Duke3 Best + Gillette Fat Tech open Muhle with Gillette Platinum #1 + Myrsol Agua Balsámica with The Real Shaving balm
Although I got a good foam with Speick cream, the shave was bad: irritation, itching... A bad combination this Muhle open comb with Fat Tech handle... it's strange because when I tried it in Tech ball-end and Muhle R89 handles it worked well.
By the way, in this shave I have finished both TRS balm and Speick cream! The first cream I spend in almost two years, hahaha... too much rotations...
Cheers!
