A fantastic shave earlier today with a crackin' finish .
The Brassbird is one of my favourite DE razors. I find it much more smooth than the stainless version.
Loving the Orange and Patchouli scent today.
Enjoy your day all.

Well what can i say
The Obsessive Soap Perfectionist Sandalwood is my ultimate number one soap.
I just love the scent on this one and as i say for me it’s my number one soap.
A cracking shave although the scents are all different.
The splash is slightly different from the soap & the balm although tobs is different again but all very well balanced.
This brush was my first proper boar,
well actually that’s wrong to say that i should say my first boar of value & today it’s still my favourite.
This brush was an ebay buy around 4 years ago so im unsure where the knot came from but its still as scritchy today as it was when i bought it.
The Boars of today seem to be a bit soft to me although i still like them but this one is still hard & scritchy and i love it.

Greetings,

Early Morning shave.

Out of all my parker DE razors the 24C took more than a fair few shaves for me to bond with it. However, once I adjusted to using a steeper angle, which parker razors require IMHO, it rewarded me with close efficient shaves...Some razors take a while before you bond with them, the 24C was the one for me.

The Erasmic shave cream produced a great lather in a short space of time, with a great post shave feel.

Another close comfortable face & head shave.

Finishing the shave off with a few small dollops of L'0REAL Barber Club Reinforcing ASB.

My face & precious swede are feeling smooth & smelling divine.😉

Keep safe, and enjoy your day ladies & gentlemen.😎

Very Nice, i am not usually a fan of OC razors, however, for these vintage fellaz i can make an exception.
The OSP sandalwood is another favourite of mine. Spot on that.
Right then, i will now take Mrs TC's little runabout down to the garage ready for its MOT in the morning, Its a busy morning tomorrow and Mechanic is going to keep it overnight as i need to drop Mrs TC at work then get back home for heating engineer to fit the new boiler.
Enjoy your day all.
