Monday:

Simpson's Duke 2 Best
Floris No 89 Shaving Soap
1962 Gillette Slim Adjustable
Tesco Blade
Harris After Shave Milk
Floris No 89 EDT

Every time I use this shaving soap, the results are excellent. It produces a lovely slick lather which not many other soaps or creams can match. I can only hope that the re-launched soap in March 2008 will be as good as this one.

Monday:

Shavemac 2007 Custom
Tabac Soap
Merkur Progress / Mekur blade (day 4)
Proraso Skin Cond.
Proraso AS Balm
T&H 1805 Cologne

The Shavemac 2007 Group custom performed very well with soap. It is the 50 mm loft, and picked up the soap easily. Very soft on the face, and good for face lathering. Held enough for 3 passes + touch ups.

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL!!

Best ... Steve
