Blade- Personna Platinum Chrome
Soap- Wickham Soap Co. Spice Trade
Brush- Paladin Falstaff 28mm
AS- Old Spice
EDT- Viktor & Rolf Spicebomb
Good morning guys. I had such a wonderful shave with my E2 this morning. It's such a fun razor to use with both hands and efficient yet smooth and exacting. Route 66 Lumberjack performed beautifully as always providing more than enough slick cushion for a proper comfortable shave. The Glacial Lemon Chill balm is always a happy ending, oh how it freezes my face and warms my heart. Tomorrow I will be shaving with the N1, I can't seem to get off the injector train......... Have a great day folks.

Spotted Old Spice Whitewater in Tesco yesterday so couldn't resist picking some up. The NSS Lemon, Mandarin & Basil is one of my favourite smelling soaps so I'm quite looking forward to a tallow version being available.

Not much scenery around my hotel today.
RazoRock Bruce, Maggard's Lilac, day three with the Dorco twin disposable, followed by a splash of Country Club Sweet Water. The Dorco is giving me very close BBS shave!

Feather AS-D2/Triad Titanium Blue Aristocrat

This Triad handle is especially light and comfortable in my hand. The SMN balm is very soothing, but I am not a fan of its scent and probably won't buy more.
