Le Tuft Resyke Custom Brush

First time using this blade and got very good results, it seems to suit the Aristo well, close irritation free 2 pass shave. Will have to see how this blade lasts but at 10p per blade not expecting too many shaves from it...........but we will see......

This morning:

Prep: Face wash, Imperial Leather bath soap
Razor: Feather Artist Club RG (wood), Pro blade (5)
Cream: Taylor's Lemon and Lime
Brush: Neep #1059 soapstone 26mm super silvertip badger
Balm: Trumper's Skin Food, West Indian Limes
Scent: Trumper's GFT
Result: very close, totally comfortable

Had to fellatio. No, autocorrect, not that. To RELOAD. Ahem. That, yes, after the first pass, there's little enough left in this pot that I'm going to need scooping bits out rather than just swirling the brush around it.

Swift and efficient, with a great result. Albeit not as enjoyable as a straight shave.
