Ach Brito Glyce preshave soap
Thrift store bowl
M&F Stubby 1 Rooney Finest (25/48)
Taylor of Old Bond Street Lavender shaving cream
Feather AS
Super-Max Titanium (3)
Tom Ford splash aftershave

A good shave. The bowl was so-so for lathering but looked nice, the brush was great again, the cream made my face burn again (!), and the blade is already getting dull. I actually skipped the aftershave and used shea butter instead.
