Bulldog for men facewash.
Muhle R89 razor with Personna red #1.
TOBS Super badger shaving brush.
Crabtree and Evelyn Sandalwood shaving soap.
DR Harris Sandalwood aftershave.
Nice late shave today, don't often use the Sandalwood aftershave, but it's good stuff, more like EDC strength, slight "bite" when applied, then skin feels great.
Have a good Bank Holiday.
 
Scheerveep Dutch Moss shaving cream/soap
Ideal with Tiger Stainless on 7
Professor Blighty's Universal Shaving balsalm, Tuxedo

Nice shave. Not uber-close on the neck but pretty good. I have a tendency to trade comfort for closeness anyway.
I actually started off with my trusty Fatboy but it doesn't like Tiger blades. Draggy and not close.
 
Saturday:

C&E Sienna cream
Omega Silvertip
Feather Artist Club SS
Pro Guard Blade
Alum
LEA Balm

Awful shave, not close and plenty of irritation. Don't know why, just one of those things I suppose.
 
Saturday night...

T&H Pre-shave oil
T&H Shaving Soap
Edwin Jagger DE89
Edwin Jagger Pure Badger Ebony Brush
Feather blade (new in tonight)
Alum block
Nivea Aftershave Balm

Three pass shave, record time, a near perfect finish. Getting more efficient at it and trying to avoid problem solving with difficult areas, to some success.

Edit : And above me I think I detect someone from OcUK. I recognise the avatar anyway!
