Rooney Finest 3 / 1
Truefitt & Hill Luxury Shaving Soap

Floris JF EdT

I haven't used the Progress much lately, but it really impresses me with close but mild shaves. I keep it dialed down pretty low/mild, but it does an exceptional job. It might be my best shaving razor (hopefully my Chatsworths aren't listening...).

 

Monday's shave:

Wilkinson Sword brush
Parker 22R version 2 Nacet 2nd day
KMF Cool Mint shaving cream
Anherb aftershave gel
Trussardi Uomo eau de toilette

2 latherings like I was suggested to do, and 2 downward shaves, and it's pretty darn good, even if I say so myself!

makhar, Armand, yiyeh pa'am akheret im ha Nacet, al takhlif oto, od lo. Wooopppps--I forget to say it in English, because we always speak in French, or Hebrew, but I tell him "Armand, tomorrow, it'll be another time with the Nacet--don't change it, not yet"

 

ani yodeya, Jeff--ata amarta li kvar pa'amayim! (I told Jeff that I know, he already told me twice!)
Armand

 

Merkur Futur with Derby blade
Vulfix Mayfair brush
DR Harris lavender shave soap (Dirty Bird Shave Mug)
Aqua Velva Classic Ice Blue aftershave lotion
Aqua Velva Ice Balm
Aqua Velva Musk Aftershave Cologne (used as cologne)

My Futur looked so sad and lonely so I used it today and it performed remarkably well.

I was never pleased with AV Musk as an aftershave, but as cologne it is superb!

 

imagine soon when you can do against the grain touch up ! pure Gentleman stuff right there. I did a 2 pass too today with Coates Tea Tree only needed 2 that stuff is GOLD. 1 WTG and one ATG. :happy102

 

I think I'll wait before I start going upwards when I shave. Jeff suggested that for a few weeks to just shave downwards twice. After the 1st lathering, I rinse, then I relather, and go downwards once again. The big guy knows what he's saying!
