My travel set-up:
Saville Row 3118
Palmolive Shave Stick
Merkur Travel Razor
Dorco 301 blade
Mennen Skin Bracer AS in old hotel shampoo bottle
An excellent shave. I would be very happy with a few Palmolive sticks cut up and pressed into a mug. The lather equals the expensive soaps.
SOTD: May 11 thru May 17

Kent BK4
T&H West Indian Limes
Starworks Fama 5/8
Thayer's Original witch hazel
Pinaud Clubman
Tonight I went without a net so to speak, and left my Merkur HD on the shelf. The shave isn't that close, but better than last night. Happily, I haven't drawn any blood yet. Curiosity got the better of me when I thought I would use an alcohol-based aftershave to see how I'm treating my face. Whoa.
