Sunday

Prep: Hot Shower-Stirling Scots Pine Bath Soap
Soap: LEA Cream-Sensitive Skin
Razor: Gillette Fat Handle Tech (Triangular Slots)
Blade: Gillette 7 O’Clock Black SP (3)
Brush: oscar11 TGN 2-Band Finest
Aftershave: Speick/LEA Aftershave Balsam

WTG-XTG-ATG (adjusted angle for my beard a bit)

I used the LEA cream this morning and stayed with the Fat Handle Tech and 7 O’Clock Black SP. The oscar11 brush whipped up a great lather in no time. LEA is a great cream out of Spain. It contains Allantoin and generates a great lather and gives excellent conditioning. I finished up with the Speick AS and LEA Aftershave Balsam. Talk about conditioning……..wow!
