Brush; Simpson, Chubby 2, Faux Emerald resin handle with a 27mm Manchurian Badger knot. “Limited Edition”

Blade; Gillette, Super Stainless, the SPOILER.
Post-shave; My Concoction; Wahl Traditional Bay Rum 500mls, Witch Hazel 500mls, Moroccan Argan Oil 100mls, Bay Laurel Essential Oil 25mls, Vit E 5mls, Natural Plant Glycerine 2.5mls and 1.25mls of Tea Tree Oil Antiseptic (Thoroughly mixed together) aftershave/moisturiser splash!! ‘’Superb’’

Shave
; Very pleasant shave with the 2 piece RFB, I find this model Gillette smoother and more efficient than all my other Gillette’s, though for absolute ‘’Eye Candy” Aristocrat Generation 1 is my clear cut winner. The Manchurian whipped up a nice ‘’face’’ lather from the Stirling/s and nicely finished with My Concoction.
