Vintage brush / Maggard synth.
Monsavon shaving soap.
Fatip Testina Gentile / custom handle.
Sputnik Teflon (3).
PeReJa Lavender EdC.
 
Glyce Lime
The Personal Barber razor
The Personal Barber synthetic brush
Astra Green blade
Stirling Margaritas in the Arctic
Bart's Balm Rosemary and Sandlewood lotion

A nice easy shave today, opened up the Stirling Margaritas in the Arctic again. Smooth, silky and plenty of glide for an easy three pass. Nice pairing with the lotion though a while lime setup would be nicer.

Still unsure whether the Glyce pre shave makes any difference to the overall experience. Though with all other pre shaves I have tried they made no difference either.

a nice shave today not the closest but as close as I could get with this razor its not bad I think if I use it again il put the head on a different handle and use a sharper blade , the soap is excellent I pushed a tiny bit into my bowl and the lather just exploded after trying this and the original klar kabinett I like the dusy version best I did get a bit irritation from the original which is strange because the only difference is dusys made with palm oil and the original coconut anyway its good soap and the mild rose scent didn't bother me ....... Later Whisker Removers :)

Blade: Gem SS #4
Razor: Ever Ready Streamline
Soap: Grooming Dept. Mallards Earl Grey
Brush: Omega Boar
Post: Thayers Witch Hazel
EDT: Grey Flannel

Two passes to bring me back to BBS aided by a few touch ups.

The soap is truly amazing with regards to its slickness and cushion qualities. The Duck Fat Tallow certainly aids in its slickness and the scent is sublime. Post shave feel is so nice.

The omega boar has broken in surprisingly quickly following the "fridge" treatment. It really is a quality boar with plenty of backbone and lovely soft tips.

I thoroughly enjoyed that, enjoy yours gentlemen. :)
