Goo afternoon. Saturday and Sunday:
TV Superspeed w/7 O'Clock Black
Vulfix Hyde Park
Coates Limes
Thayer's Lavender witch hazel
Fitjar Neroli A/S cream
English Fern
Travel kit. The bristles on the Hyde Park are top quality boar- the nicest I've tried- but the knot and handle are too small.

SUNDAY
- EJ/DR Harris 87 with Derby
- C&E BBB
- Ogallala Bay Rum with Sandalwood Soap
- C&E Nomad ASB
IMHO Ogallala Soaps are a 'sleeper' product that perform very well. The scent of the Bay Rum/Sandalwood is outstanding with a soap base that delivers top tier of any cold process I have tried.

Sunday Shave
Sunday, November 8, 2009
Razor: Merkur Progress XL
Blade: Astra Superior Platinum
Brush: Vulfix 2234 Super
Cream/Soap: Valobra Soft Soap
A/S: Dickinson’s Witch Hazel/Nivea Fresh Cooling Balm
The Valobra produced lots of nice lather, more than enough for 3 passes and touchup, and the Progress gave a smooth and effortless shave.
The WH/Nivea topped it all off with a fine, cooling finish.
