Razor: Gillette Fat Boy (5)
Blade(s): Gillette 7 o'clock Yellow (2)
Brush: TF Lava Demon 26mm
Soap/Cream: Squadron Soaps "Group Captains Blend"
Post: Dickinsons

Back to week day shave. Think I have the brush dialled in now. Never thought it would be that hard! Plenty of lather and such a fine scent as well. This one does stick with you for a while after the shave and I am happy about that. One weeper but pretty sure that was a follow on from the feather a few days ago. Hopefully my shipment arrives in today. May be able to finally have some post shave entry to make apart from Dickensons and Thayers.

Good stuff, Mate! I have re-discovered yellow 7 O'Clocks of late, while only using Russian blades for the past six weeks apart from 3 or 4 shaves with a Gem SE and Gem blades. I have found 7 OC blades give me an extremely good shave... I have used them with several razors... including 3 different OCs. My new Maggard synthetic brush has me well and truly won over to synths as well. I will still use a hog occasionally though. Really surprised by the 7OC blades.

Fantastic shave I can't fault it, I'm really honing in on making all combos of my current gear work, might have to sell some off in exchange for NEW items

The Santa Maria Novella was a favorite of @Draco Noir . He would be very pleased to see you using it.

As a fellow DNA fan, would be interested in your thoughts on the "42" range.

I like 42, it's a mixture of black pepper/petunias, tea and lemon notes. Quite mild and ideal for spring.

That was the aim - and I had a little assistance in choosing it :)

Reasonably aggressive setting on the slim but the Voskhod and squadron soap provided a smooth comfortable shave :smug:​
