    Prep - Noxzema / Hot towel
    Pre shave - Proraso
    Razor – ‘The Rock’ (Rockwell 6S – #3)
    Blade – Astra S/P
    Brush - 'Mama Chub' (Chubby 2 Two Band)
    Soap – Chiseled Face Cryogen
    Post - Witch Hazel, Jojoba oil.

    I've been looking forward to using the Chiseled Face Cryogen soap.. well, I'll start off by saying, Bloody 'ell, that were cold!! This'll make yer eyes water...
    'The Rock'+ Astra S/P combo gave a BBS finish, with a little irritation.. but nothing too extreme. Yeah, I enjoyed that...

    Shave 30. Hmmm. Really close result, less noise from the Alum but more cuts and blood than usual. Best guess is I was distracted with some recent goings-ons and too tentative on my strokes causing the blade to dig here and there. :rolleyes005:

    This was the first razor/blade combo when I first went back into wet shaving and it still continues to give me great shaves. Had a really nice and smooth BBS shave today. IMG_0800.jpg

    I cannot use the Wild Stone cream because the tube was punctured so here's my change of setup for tomorrow! Same brush, razor, blade - just a cream change!
