A great shave make no mistake. An entirely blank canvas with which to scent my day, I felt smoother than James Bond on a promise!

Smoother than James bond on a promise, ha , I haven laughed so much in ages, thank you Nick.
 
Gillette Slim gold with Rapira Swedish on his eight use.
Musgo Real shaving cream
Frank Shaving finest
Florida water
The lanolin of the cream is enough for a soft and pleasant post postshave.

Salutations Everyone

Today's proceedings:
Pre: Clinique Charcoal Face Wash, Proraso Green Pre-Shave and soap bloom water
Soap: The Fat
Brush: Omega 80800
Bowl: Steve Woodhead Ceramics
Razor: Gillette Superspeed W1 (1951)
Blade: Polsilver Super Iridium (2nd use)
Post: alum block and Nivea White a/s balm
Fragrance: L'Occitane Eau de Vetyver EDT
Music: Fripp/Eno - Evening Star

The Superspeed and Polsilver work well for me; especially 2nd time with the blade. I know I've been lauding the virtues of Saponificio's Artic Tundra; but it's nice to be Mitchell-ing again.

Smooth as James Mason's voicebox...

Have a great forthcoming week, Folks.
