    Prep - Hot towel
    Pre shave - Prep
    Razor – Tesco cartridge
    Blade – N/A
    Brush - Rough,No Name Boar
    Soap – Faena: Dorica
    Post - Cold water rinse / Witch Hazel / Wickham Soap: Cashmere Aftershave Balm

    A Saturday shave, and I didn't have time to break out a badger, and DE :-( so, a cartridge, and no name boar again... Well, Faena: Dorica delivered a wonderful, thick easy lather, with great slickness, and the protection that you expect from a tallow+lanolin soap.. a little irritation due to repeated passes over my trouble spots with an average cart, that isn't as good as the Sensor, but all in all, a great performance from a soap that deserves more attention. The Wickham Soap: Cashmere Aftershave Balm was light and easily absorbed... BBS, and feeling good.

    Birch Tar soap and RSC Facial Scrub
    Vitos Preshave Cream
    Vitos Tabacca Shaving Cream
    Giles Shaving Co Bowl
    Semogue SOC 2 Band in Cherry Wood
    Feather AC RG with a Feather Super Pro Blade
    Alum Block and rinse
    BBA PS Balm
    Vitos Tabacco AS
    Oudh Khalifa EDP

    The Feather RG is the predecessor of the current SS range of Artist Clubs. The blade holder has the same geometry as the DX, but is in brass rather than Stainless Steel. It is much more aggressive than the SS range. I think today was the first time I have used it with a Super Pro Blade so I was delighted with the results. Claret free and BBS with 2 passes and just a tiny touch up in the normal place.
    The Giles bowl....while badly chipped is still useable....and will be until my replacement arrives
    Have a great Sunday

    What a great three pass icy-cold BBS shave with the Black Ice soap. The Lucky Tiger balm and the Rubby Dubby Doo ended it beautifully!

    Have a nice Sunday!

    Soap: Reef Point Test Depth
    Brush: Brothers Bristles Silver Surfer
    Razor: Rockwell 6sR6
    Blade: voskhod

    5. Rite-Aid Witch Hazel.
