Did well on my 3rd shave with the beast but did manage to slice my cheek. Went in on the wrong angle. Not too deep so not to worry. Super smooth created a thick full lather as usual. Cracking soap

Another go with the injector, got to be the easiest non cartridge razor I have used. I would recommend this to any one switching over from cartridges as it feels very similar.
Good dfs shave before going out for lunch.

Prep: Hot shower
Pre: Santa Maria Novella Pre-shave
Soap: Grandstaff Illipe/Cocoa Butter Soap (splodge)
Bowl: Woodhead Pedestal
Brush: Omega Boar 10005
Razor: Progress @2.5, 2, 2
Blade: Polsilver SI (1)
After: Santa Maria Novella Pomegranate AS, Coral Skin Food

Using some of my best performers this morning. Grandstaff soap is wonderful to use in every aspect, only a splodge left from my sample; maybe I should organise a group buy. Progress and Polsilver SI always get great results.
This Omega brush is the cheapest I've ever bought (I think about $6 Canadian at a supermarket) but has really soft tips with a good strong backbone. It's in my number 1 place alongside my Muhle synthetic v2 which cost ten times the price!

BBS results and can't stop facerbating.
