Good morning Gentlemen.
Shave prep: Face wash, bergamot preshave oil
Brush: Frank Shaving Finest Badger
Soap: Proraso Green Tea
Razor: Roxo, by Marsh Borthers, Pond Works, Sheffield England, 4/8 half hollow
Strop: nun2sharp's hanging leather strop
After Shave Splash: My own Witch Hazel Cedarwood and Cypress concoction. Since there's virtually no alcohol in my AS, we'll call this a dry day
Notes: Not really sure what happened here today, but it may be the closest I've come to a 1-pass bbs. A good dollop of touchup, but still, and 2 small nicks to show for my efforts. I had to bring out the styptic, the low alcohol AS does nothing to close up little trickles. Also, I am not a big fan of menthol in my lather, so I got the Green Tea. They snuck some in there as well, who wouldda thought Apart from that, the lather is great. All in all, a great shave.
