Pre shave: Lavender Glycerine soap
Soap: Razorock Puros
Brush: TOBS Pure Badger
Razor: Razorock Mamba
Blade: Gillette Silver Blue
Post shave: Cold water, Brut

My first shave with my newly aquired Mamba. I had a DFS with the razor/blade combo but feel I may stick a Feather in it and see what happens. I face lathered tonight. I'm fast becoming a big fan of Razorock soap, the lather was superb as was the brush, it's a firm favourite of mine when face lathering. I fancied a bit of post shave sado-masochism so I got the Brut out. I know it's cheap as chips and can double up as drain unblocker but I happen to really like the scent!

~SOTD~

Early up so too dark for a picture, anyway.......

Prep ~ Shower, Birch tar soap
Razor ~ Colonal Razors ~ Brass General
Blade ~ Schick proline
Soap ~Barrister And Mann ~ Roam
Brush ~ Omega Pro 49 Boar
Post ~ Barrister And Mann ~ Roam Aftershave
Scent ~ Feuilles de Tabac - Miller Harris

A superb shave from the General and proline as always, close and smooth. Still loving the scent of the B&M Roam.
A little sting from the aftershave to fully wake me!
My first use of this scent from Miller Harris and I love it......from the back of the box...."An audacious marriage of warm spices and honeyed tobacco " I could not have discribed it any better!

Have a great day folks. P.

RazoRock Plissoft 24mm
Cyril Salter Solid soap
Schick N3
Schick S/S Twin [ 24 - Japan ]
Pitralon A/S Lotion

Managed by not rushing things to have a great Shave with this Razor/Blade combination. After using short strokes for initial clearance the Shave was very smooth and resulted in an excellent close all round Shave.
My regard for this budget soap increases as like the MWF & Vitos provides both the slide/cushion essential
for a good Shave.
