Almost forgot I'd got the Bostonian, but it was the perfect tool to slice off 2 1/2 days of growth. A lovely late afternoon shave.

Cold water splash

Lovely shave, the LEA cream and NF 2224 providing a creamy lather and the AS-D2 plus the Polsilver Stainless giving any uncannily smooth yet close shave WTG, XTG and limited ATG. After the cold water splash, the Arko Ice Mint compliments the LEA (mentholated) perfectly for an invigoratingly fresh finish.

Gillette Mach3
Thäter 49125/1

A solid midweek shave after a crap, cold night's sleep. Ideal conditions for a cartridge shave and a hit of menthol to wake me up.
