Astra SP blade
Shave Revolution Metaloid brush
TSD Lemongrass SS w/2x menthol
Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe

Love the scent of the Lemongrass SS and A/S plus all the menthol is great. I paired my EJ DE87 head with a Scotch&Stowe stainless steel handle and it's a great combo.

Thursday morning:

T&H West Indian Limes cream
Stirling Kong synthetic brush
Maggard V3A razor
Astra SS blade
Pinaud Lime Sec EdC

About two weeks left in the tub of lime cream. I'll finish it before moving on to something new. The V3A razor continues to be a favorite. It doesn't fail to provide a superior shave.
Best regards,

Basil

Mastro Livi Stripes CarboInox Italy, 7/8 Full Hollow, Spanish Point

It was quite a long time I was not using Williams mug shaving soap and when I saw it in a shop during my last trip, I bought it right away. And I am very happy I did because I had good memories of this soap, something it was capable to confirm in today's shave. Easy to lather, good in holding water, it was very easy to get a rich lather also thanks to Mastro Livi silver wild badger shave brush, with its amazing juniper aroma because of the handle made from this Mediterranean wood. As for the razor, this fantastic and superb Mastro Livi stripes CarboInox proves to be - shave after shave - a magnificent shaver giving a super velvety and smooth BBS. I also like the scales because of the Italian flag insert: jade, fossil mammoth ivory and coral. The final touch has been provided by Layrite Bay Rum No. 9, one of the very few around having a real and genuine bay leaf fragrance.
  • Pre-Shave: RazorGuy Pre-Shave Oil
  • Soap: Williams Mug Shaving Soap
  • Brush: Mastro Livi Silver Wild Badger Double Band, Juniper Handle, 24mm knot
