Pre Prep + DR Harris Arlington shaving cream + New Forest 2213 + Weber ARC Bulldog with Feather #1 + Provence Santé splash with 444 balm


Today I have tested the Weber razor with a Feather blade. The result: a superb shave without any kind of nicks or irritation, when I used the splash it was like clean water, hehe. I like much this razor for sure, is really difficult to have a bad shave with it (like Rotbart razor as well). A shame the issues about finishing in its ARC head.


By the way, although this New Forest is a good brush for facelathering, it continues loosing hair... I hope that some time it will stop, as is not confortable to find so long hairs in my beard when I'm shaving it.


Cheers!

Greetings B&Bers,


Sunday August 12th, 2012

Coffee: Costa Rica Tarrazu Region
Prep: Hot Cloth face wash with MRGLO
Preshave: Edwin Jagger Preshave Cream
Soap/Cream: Truefitt & Hill Ultimate
Razor: Gillette Superspeed P-1
Blade: Crystal IP
Brush: Simpson Keyhole 2
Lather: Face
Passes: WTG, XTG, ATG
Post: Warm/Cold water rinse with Anthony Astringent
AS/ASB: Men-ü


Really enjoy the smell and feel of the T&H. I need to work at face lathering this one as it is very thick out of the tub. The Men-ü ASB really does a good job of keeping my head moisturized. I was out in the sun today for a couple hours without burning.


Have a great week everyone,


Tele
