Pre: Pb Pre Shave Emulsion
Soap: Barrister's Reserve Spice
Brush: TF 26mm HMW
Razor: Gillette New Long Comb
Blade: Dorco Prime (2)
Post: Jojoba Oil


Blade: Dorco Prime (2
 
  1. Blade: Astra Superior Platinum
  2. Razor: Charcoal Goods Maze Handle, Level 2, OC
  3. Soap: APR Skye Fall
  4. Brush: Dovo silvertip
  5. Postshave: Proraso post shave milk
  6. Earworm: Fruit Salad - The Wiggles
After being overseas for two weeks it was good to have all my accoutrements back at hand. However, I had to shave with my 3year old son on my hip as he took my 2 week sojourn quite hard, and when I went to shave, post brekkie, he insisted on coming too. Hence, no photo. Hopefully, things will be back to normal tomorrow.

Decent enough shave (apart from the earworm, courtesy of my son), which considering the jet lag, I was happy with no nicks. The blade was a bit dull, so will try something new tomorrow.

I love Witch Hazel and never skip it because according to my mistress it keeps me stunningly attractive

... and if you DID skip it and used only APR products you would not only be stunningly attractive but absolutely irresistible and she could not keep her hands off you.

The choice is yours of course!

Pre-shave:- Cold Water straight from the tap
Brush:- Omega 011842 Boar 27/52mm knot
Soap/Cream:- Declaration Grooming ~ Fourth & Pine
Bowl/Scuttle:- Captain's Choice
Razor/Blade:- GEM G-Bar / GEM Personna SS PTFE Coated #3
Post-shave:- Thayers Witch Hazel & Tea Tree Oil / Lucky Tiger Aftershave & Face Tonic / Lucky Tiger Face Moisturizer
Fragrance:- None
 
Brush: Vulfix 406 Boar
Razor: RR Gamechanger
Blade: Gillette Spoiler
Soap: Comoy
A/S: Speick

For a $4.00 soap the Comoy loaded and lathered well. Scent is nothing special, light coconut and the post shave is average but that really doesn't bother me, that's why I use aftershave.
The Vulfix was every bit as good as I hoped. Once it breaks in it will be an awesome little boar.
 
Pre-shave: Hot shower
Brush: Vintage butterscotch Simpson 'The Duke'
Soap/Cream: Barrister & Mann (B&M) Petrichor shaving soap
Razor: Vintage NEW head (replated) on TSW Bren handle
Blade: Personna 'Lab Blue' (2)
Post-shave: Barrister & Mann (B&M) Petrichor aftershave splash
Fragrance: None

On leave this week, but no rest for the wicked. Off to Orange today to hear my FiL around his house, down to Sydney on Wednesday to visit the Pop Up Globe again and then home Thursday. Nice to have a great shave on board for that adventure!

Pre: hot shower
Brush: Razorock Big Bruce
Soap: A&G Lavender
Razor: Merkur 37c slant

Simple 2 pass with minor touch up shave. Once with the grain and another ATG. Fine result! I must learn to do more shaves like this and not chase BBS constantly.
