Soap: Pb Artemisia
Brush: Vie-Long Black Horse American Barber Style
Razor: Merkur 39C
Blade: Elios (2)
Post: Pb Calendula Balm
Nice combo. I've only used the Elios blade twice and both have been good shaves. Do others find the Elios a good blade?
 
I too will blame Imgur for not allowing a photo upload....

First time in maybe 2 years or over i broke out the Gillette Fusion 5 blade "razor".
Reason being i am staying the next few nights in the city and whilst i will probably only shave once on Saturday morning, i didn't want to bother taking my DE. So this was a practice of sorts... Still taking a brush and a la Toja stick.

Back to today's shave and it was again with the TOBS Almond cream. Mmm i love the scent of this stuff. I tried my best to use the cart in the same manner as a DE. No pressure, WTG, ATG, cleanup pass. I got about 8/10ths there.

Finished up with some APR Bombora splash since the weather is going to be nice today (albeit mighty cold up to now...)

Polsilver blades really did have a shave or two to break in! I never really enjoy a fresh Polsilver.

Pre: Coconut Oil
Soap: Back Beet V1
Brush: Zenith Boar (shedomatic)
Razor: Boker Tree Brand
Post: Jojoba Oil
AS: B&M Spice
I'd forgotten Back Beet V1 was so soft (paste). Lathered up beautifully. Luxury shave. As I've said before, the Zenith would probably be my favourite brush if it didn't shed.
