*SOLD* Hey all, I have a few pucks of the Crabtree & Evelyn Sweet Almond Oil shave soaps. These are triple milled, hard pucks of soap. I have quite a few too many in my stash which I want to reduce a bit. I have previously sold many, many of these on B&B but I thought I would offer them on SMF too g...

do blade buffing with a couple of drops of shaving oil.

I find swirling a dry brush on a damp puck and then going to a bowl with a bit of water in it really charges the brush up for a fantastic face lather!!!

I never use much pressure when lathering, just soft swirling.

The C&E cream is fantastic!

there are 2 different types of anti-dandruff. You can get selenium based which basically accelerate the peeling process, your flakes will get worse before they get better. The other one is an anti-fungal Ketoconazole based which actually kill off the bacteria causing dandruff. This is the one I used...

the nivea moisturiser is fantastic but I use it at night as it is quite heavy. I would stick to the ASB for after the shave.

a gentle scrub twice weekly is plenty. I find it too much if used daily.

for a scrub, I really like the TBS macaroot scrub. Its a gentle scrub and does the job perfectly.

Somersets is a very slick oil. It is supposed to replace all other products (yeah right!) but it makes a good pre-shave.

for me, its like morning aromatherapy. I actually look forward to shaving and it sometimes takes a while to decide with soap I want to use.

I mix a few drops in my lather bowl and it improves the slickness of the lather...not by much though, only a little difference.

Today was a very comfy shave...
- C&E SAO soap
- Comoy pure badger brush
- Feather popular with Astra SP blade
- TBS macaroot ASB.

Astra SP I find are very consistent and they shave great. They have a real nice balance between smoothness and sharpness.

I find it is always too much pressure rather than angle that gives me cuts. Angle for me is more related to razor burn but not cuts.

cool, razor looks nice!
