Excellent cold water face lathered shave with my only working wedge razor. Just got the Omega boar brush yesterday and after giving it 6 test lathers yesterday it performed like a champ this morning. It made more than enough lather for 3 passes without adding more Arko. It is now my official travel brush. Don't work too hard.

Curiosity and supporting a friend is the reason for the razor.

Skipped a day shaving on Sunday and needed a good stiff blade for some serious monday morning deforestation. My trusty puma 69 was just the right razor for the task and left my face glass smooth with one pass.

Prep: hot shower
Brush: New Forest knot in an old barbers handle
Razor: Puma + GEM Micromatic
Cream: Maca Root by Bodyshop
AS/edt: Paco Rabanne Ultraviolet
Strops: Neil Miller
Result: Uberclean
First go with this cream and it's a good one, I think, even though I pressed my head shaves with two in row days with the Micromatic (it was so fun, but I think my head needs a little rest now
).

Yesterday's Shave the 24th.
Razor: 7/8 Peaso
Strop: Scrupleworks Horween/Linen 50/50
Brush: HL Thater 4125/2 Two Band
Soap: DR Harris Windsor
WH: Thayers Lavender
AS: Floid Blue
EdT: Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue
Everything just fell into place yesterday. My selections combined with not being in a hurry made for the most delightful shave I have had in a long time! Not that I have not had good shaves in between, but for some reason yesterdays was really special. Very smooth and refreshing!
Cheers!
