Monday 6th July SOTD
Soap - Palmolive Stick (in a China dish)
Brush - Simpson Trafalgar T3
Razor - Timeless 0.68 SS Scalloped
Blade - Astra SP (1)
Toner - Witch Hazel Bergamot & Cedarwood
Aftershave - Superdrug Forest Fresh ASL
Conscious that I'd got into the habit of using Gillette Silver Blues & Platinum's exclusively for a while, I used an Astra SP tonight.
These were at one time, my favourite blade, and I used them for months on end.
It seemed well suited to the Timeless 0.68, and seemed a little sharper than the Gillette blades.
The Trafalgar T3 soon gathered enough soap for a face lather, producing perfectly hydrated silky, protective lather without the need for added water.
I'm always impressed with this inexpensive synthetic brush, and wouldn't mind trying the 24mm T2 version in the near future.
Finished shave result is very good, just about BBS.
