Thayers Cucumber WH w/ aloe
Speick a/s
Musgo Real a/s balsam
GFT Spanish Leather cologne

Took the Genco from dull to shave ready this morning on my Ardennes coticule and gave myself an absolutely outstanding shave this morning. I have been having a run of really good shaves lately and this one tops them all, especially having honed this razor totally on my own. Two passes and a few touch up passes and I am left with a shave that is as close to BBS result that I have ever achieved with a straight. I had to finish with the Musgo Real balm and the Spanish Leather. And today will be better than yesterday.
