FRIDAY A.M.
PRE-SHAVE: QED French Red Clay face soap
SHAVE SOAP: Czech & Speake Oxford and Cambridge
BRUSH : Somerset Simpson Duke 2, Best
RAZOR/BLADE: Gem Clog Pruf and Gem PTFE SS Blade (2)
POST SHAVE: Crystal alum deo stick as astringent .... Clubman Eau de Portugal Tonic as After Shave.... Simpson After Shave Balm
Today's super shave required just 2 passes and buffing. Used a bit less water compared to my last shave, to work up some fabulous lather.
The C&S may get a few day's rest but Valobra made soaps are beginning to dominate my preferred soap rotation. Next up likely to be the
Valobra hard puck... am I really at the point where I'm thinking about the NEXT shave before my after shave has even dried!
