Prep: BBA Pre-shave oil
Razor: Henkals Friodur 72.5
Soap: Calani Oriental Plum
Brush: Black Anvil Custom 26mm 2Band Finest
Post: BBA ASB
EDC: ADP Essenza

I had plenty of time this afternoon to pamper myself without intrusion. Make the most of it I thought so out came the Friodur.
A superb smooth razor that left my skin feeling great after 2 passes.

The 3rd use of this brush and it has not let me down. Great flow through with plenty of backbone and lovely soft tips.

Face lathered with the Calani, a beautifully scented soap with good slickness and cushion and a really nice post shave feel.
The scent of the soap is up there with my favourites.

Finished with the infamous BBA Balm and a delicate spray of an ADP sample. I love this scent I intend to buy a bottle very shortly.

Enjoy your shaves! :)

The performance of this soap is pretty good but the scent is amazingly divine, pairs quite well with the 4711 but will have to treat myself to the splash some day.
Every time I use the Cobra I wonder if I'm only keeping my other razors for sentimental reasons?
Happy Shaving one and all!
 


Pre: Valobra Glycerlanolina soap, Castle Forbes pre-shave gel
Brush: Savile Row 3824 Silvertip Badger
Soap: OSP Eucalyptus and Menthol
Razor: UFO Tornado / ATT S1
Blade: Vintage Gillette Platinum Plus (3)
Post: Myrsol Emulsion / Proraso White Sensitive
EdT: Guerlain Vetiver

A belting three pass shave. Nice menthol kick from the OSP soap, and the vintage Gillette blade continues to be very smooth and very sharp.
A few buffs, and BBS. A hot night here in Perth - the Guerlain Vetiver's sharp bitter-sweet tang was just right.

Moss Anniversary Slate scuttle
Rooney 3/2 Ivory Finest (24/58) (new brush)
Noxzema Sensitive shaving cream
Charcoal Goods Brass L1/Triad Aristocrat Copper
Personna Super Platinum Chrome (7)
Ralph Lauren Safari aftershave balm (vintage)

The cream required more water and more work than I had expected to produce lather. It had good cushion and excellent glide, and it left my skin soft and moisturized.
