Edwin Jagger Sea Buckthorn soap. It's a good two-pass shave soap.

Thursday am - Noxzema ODCC. Coming off the exhausted supply of Ingrams brushless, I've realized I was spoiled by it during the month of great shaves with all types of razors, SR,DE,SE, and cartridges. I had intended to use the Mem as a brushless, but I believe it just doesn't perform (just as the Coates didn't perform) up to the requirements of the non-cartridge conventional razors. Ingram had something special. My old standby, Noxzema Original Deep Cleansing Cream, seems to work just about as well as Ingram, and it's plentiful at $5 per tub. I'm still planning to order a tube of Rasoline in the future to see if it will meet or exceed Ingram brushless in terms of performance with the SR,DE,SE razors. So today instead of Mem, I went with the Noxzema ODCC, and got a great cartridge shave. Saving the Mem for the evening shave with the Ever Ready Streamline SE, and it won't be brushless. It'll be a full brush lathering, and it'll be great!

Yesterday and today -Proraso White Pre Shave and Canned Shave Cream.

Gary's mention of Rasoline brought back some fond memories of this French shave cream, good stuff in my books.
Good shaving,

Gary
