Not much to shave, just a quick touch up after a late afternoon shave yesterday. Amazingly, I managed to get all my papers in on time and it seems like at least for this week, I've survived. Time to get back to work and get some rest :)
Razor: Max Sprecher Custom 8/8
Shave prep Morning shave, so a hot shower
Brush: D.R. Harris
Preshave: Proraso Pre; then a super hot towel
Soap: Taylor of Old Bond Street, Sandlewood
Scuttle: Simple soup bowl
Strop: Kanayama 20 canvas strokes and 60+ strokes on the leather
After Shave Splash: Nivea aftershave Balm
Notes:
The heavy MSC 8/8 chopped perfectly; no nicks, scratches, weepers, or burn, just a smooth and refreshed face as result.
The Sandlewood soap lingered a day long as did the smile on my face:).
