Pre-shave: Hot flannel, Valobra Glicerlanolina
Brush: TroyCraft "Nebulish" 30mm silvertip
Soap: MdC Original
Razor: Atelier Durdan Vestige
Blade: Personna GEM Stainless
Post-shave: TND witch hazel, homebrew moisturiser, La Roche-Posay Anthelios SPF 50+ Invisible Fluid, Oxford & Cambridge cologne
Lately, my weekday shave has pretty much revolved around MdC now that I'm down to just five soaps in active circulation (not counting backups and a few "guest" soaps that I pick up from time to time). Just where I wanted to be a couple of years ago, having totally overdone my purchases...

Lavender, citrus, moss... I suspect that combination may be right up my alleyway. I already know the Zingari base is really excellent.
