Razor: Merkur - Classic
Blade: PermaSharp - Super
Brush: Omega 640
Cream: Musgo Real
Aftershave: Trumper's - Coral Skin Food/Connaught's - Sweet Orange Aftershave Balm

The MR is a very nice cream. I don't use nearly as much as I should. It's getting colder now and Skin Food isn't enough to moisturise my skin. The Connaught balms might seem to go on very thick, but on me it goes in very quickly.
Regards,
Jani

34C w/US Personna (CVS) day 2
Chatsworth w/Israeli Personna (Crystal) day 2

Muehle Silver Tip
Jagger Sandalwood Shave Cream
Moss Scuttle (small)
Thayers Lemon Witch Hazel w/Aloe

I think the IPs shave me a little closer. I will try just the IP next shave.

The Muehle Silver Tip is one of my favorite brushes. I think I like the softness without the scrub.

Monday:

Omega Sintex, 90018
ARKO Lemon
Schick Krona
Polsilver blade, 3rd shave
Thayers Lemon
Body Shop Razor Relief

It's been humid here, so I took out the ARKO Lemon to use it up.

After two rough, irritating shaves with the Polsilver in a new adjustable razor I'm trying, I switched the blade to a Krona, and voila! Behavior like I'm used to with a Polsilver. Will be trying a less sharp blade in the new adjustable later.
