Tuesday Night:

Gillette Aristocrat razor (1947)
Dorco blade

Omega small pure badger brush
Tryphon Lime EO shaving soap

Thayer's Original Witch Hazel


A close shave, of course, with the Aristocrat.
This new little Omega brush has a handle made out of some of the most beautiful material I have ever seen on a brush. It has the perfectly sized brushhead for loading from a cake of soap, and like my other two pure badger brushes, it whips up a denser lather than I am able to do with my silvertip brushes.

Progress/Israeli
Sabrooney finest 1/2
Acqua di Parma "cream"
Lucky Tiger Tonic
Acqua di Parma Colonia

I used long, careful strokes, today, and never went over an area with no lather remaining on it. Gave myself the crappiest shave I've had in ages.
