Pre: Hot Shower
Razor: E.S Outlaw
Blade: Derby Extra (1)
Brush: H&S Co Green 24mm tuxedo
Soap: Zingari Man The Explorer
Post: Zingari Man The Explorer Recovery Splash/ Essano Man Moisturiser

Used the Derby blade this time, and as I assumed, the shave was milder approx Karve SB C plate / Rockwell 6s plate R4. Wasn't my cup of tea as I had to buffer alot to achieve BBS in 3 pass + touchups. Soap and Post shave products worked well.

Forgotten Art midnight toker 26mm SHD fan
Huon Pine aftershave.

Good shave.
First run of the soap, not too bad, but the tin is a little small for the brush.

@Holiday and @Ebonysw45
Smells just like freshly sawn huon pine. It has a very unique scent of its own, its almost like a lemon grass scent.
I brought some wholesale so I can send out an occasional gift with brushes.

Always have to be careful with the level 3 OC. Took it nice and slow this morning and had an awesome two pass shave.​

Methyl eugenol, a type of ether (strictly, 1,2-Dimethoxy-4-(prop-2-en-1-yl)benzene for an IUPAC definition). Aside from being an anti-fungal and preservative, I'm told it repels insects, so your aftershave might be useful around the BBQ
