Becker scuttle
Homemade coconut preshave oil
Somerset Simpson Beaufort 6 Pure brush
Herbs of Bulgaria Lavender shaving cream
iKon OSS razor
Gillette 7 O'Clock Yellow blade (1)
Homemade coconut aftershave balm
A great BBS shave, using the closed comb for ATG, and the open side for the other passes. The coconut balm burned again, even diluted 50% with T&H Ultimate Comfort, so I decided just to pitch it out. Live and learn.

sun-tues for me were travel days...
Razor: 1950s Superspeed Flairtip
Blade: Astra SP
Soap/Creme: arko
Brush: omega Boar
pre: shower
Post: a dab of nivea
Groom: just some conditioner ( next time I bring some. I missed it).
Decent shaves with my travel kit while I was away from home. The kit may not be quite as luxurious or varied as my usual, but it all performs very well. My only real regret is that I just don't get as rich a lather facelathering as bowl lathering, so I may tweak that aspect a bit next time I am not home. Well that and missing my classic hair grooms.

Becker scuttle
Homemade frankincense & myrrh preshave oil
Somerset Simpson PJ2 Super brush
Acqua di Parma shaving cream
iKon OSS razor
Gillette 7 O'Clock Yellow blade (2)
Acqua di Parma Colonia Intensa aftershave balm
A BBS shave, but a very slight burn afterward. I really hope I'm not developing a reaction to the AdP products the way I did to their cologne.
