Jani, "Tails"?.....good grief!

Tuesday:

Gillette Model #58 & Swedish Gillette ( Oslo )
SR 3120
Floris No 89 shave cream
D R Harris's Pink A/S
Floris No 89

Well, the Floris cream seems to have improved with age. When I first got it, it was kind of light weight, and overly 'creamy' and slick. But it's aged into a firmer and finer lathering product. I've probably had it sitting around for the better part of a year.

Tuesday Night:

GEM Featherweight razor
Treet carbon steel blade

Semogue 2040 brush (silvertip, tall acrylic handle)
Art of Shaving soap (Unscented)

Thayer's Peach Witch Hazel (Astringent: 10% alcohol, no -parabens, no burn)


I'm really falling for this SE razor, its ergonomics, and the shave. The carbon steel blade is very sharp and, aided by its rigidity, it just mows through the whiskers.

Gordon, I wear tails quite often. A requisite for the more clandestine setting.

Razor: Merkur - HD
Blade: Treet - Platinum
Brush: Omega - #10005
Pre-shave: Floid - Sandalor
Shaving Soap: Trumper's - Limes
Aftershave: 4711 - AS & Taylor's - Herbal Cream
Cologne: Trumper's - Ajaccio Violets

Wonderful performance as always from the Trumper's soap and I love the scent of the Limes soap. Slightly limey, citrusy, floral and soapy all at once. Wonderful, absolutely wonderful.
Regards,
Jani
