Brush: TROYCRAFT Clear/Blue/White 24mm 2 Band Finest P&C Charity Auction 2021
Razor: Alpha Shave Works Outlaw DE
Blade: Minora Stainless (1)
Pre: Shower
Soap: Shaver Heaven Honey Ale
Post: Milkman HQ Spring Rider A/S Serum // Nivea Sensitive Post Shave Balm
Touchups = BBS

Not much to shave after yesterday's shave so opted for the Outlaw and not the smoothest shave but super close...

Stay Safe & Happy Shaves!
 
Pre-shave: Hot Towel
Brush: YAQI Janus glow in the dark brush with Cashmere Synthetic knot. I don't normally like soft brushes but instantly fell in love with this one on first use.
Soap: B&M Fern
Razor: 1890 - 1910 Electric Cutlery Co. For a 120+ years old razor, this one gives an amazing shave though the scales are a little delicate.
Post-shave: The Chiseled Face Natural Aftershave Balm.

Pre-shave: Hot shower
Brush: Vintage butterscotch Simpson shaving brush
Soap/Cream: APR Fougere Trois shaving soap
Razor: Charcoal Goods Generation 1 Level 2 P&C head with prototype stinger handle
Blade: Polsilver 'Brown' (4)
Post-shave: APR Fougere Trois splash
Fragrance: B&M Le Grand Chypre EDT

The EDT is interesting. The jury is still out on this one, Mrs Mark1966 is unsure as am I.

Another great shave from the CG razor though - much better than a vector ...

You should try the soap. I love it.
 
Rocca R96
Gillette Minora
Blue Devil Lust
TROYCRAFT Mercury Nebula Boar
Executive Man Splash

@rhodes96 this splash matched very well with Lust, more of a match than the XXX i used yday. for me both started with a similar floral scent with EM a bit brighter/sharper and both ending slightly differently with EM ending on more of a pineapple note and the lust ending slightly sweeter but softer of with what I think is a vanilla scent, but I am no expert on describing scents so take that with a pinch of salt.. what I can say without doubt is that its a fantastic match :)
