Tuesday:
Gillette Model #58 & Gillette 'Swede'
Plisson #12 HMW
Trumpers Limes shave cream
D R Harris's Pink A/S
Trumpers Spanish Leather
I always have to be mindful when I use this brush with creams because, compared to my two other 'regular' brushes, this one hold noticeably more water and has to be given an extra shake or two. If I forget I wind up with light bubbley lather and have to add more cream....which is kind of messy.
