Wednesday AM

Normal hot shower and The Body Shop Grapeseed facewash on the face (where else??)

Gillette slim adjustable w/Derby
GFT Limes Skin Food pre-shave
C&E/EJ Super Badger brush
GFT Limes cream
Osma alum block
GFT Sandalwood skin food

I mixed up the skin foods today on purpose to see what effect a different pre to post application would have. Happy to report no significant difference. I just felt like smelling a bit like sandalwood this morning for a bit and skin food, with it's quickly leaving scent was just the ticket.
