Pre-shave: Cold Water splash / YBN Glycerin
Razor: MΓΌhle Rocca R95
Blade: Gillette Silver Blue (3)
Brush: MΓΌhle Liscio Black Fibre
Bowl: DSC Bauhinia Travel bowl
Soap: Barrister and Mann - Fougère Classique (sample)
Alum: none
A/S: 4711 - Original Eau De Cologne
Aftercare: Witchazel Rose Petal Toner / Aloe Vera Gel
EdP: Byredo - Super Cedar

Still in travel mode this week and the second performance of the Rocca with the GSB on this voyage. Nice uneventful 2-pass (WTG) BBS with some touchups.

B&M's Fougère Classique lathered beautifully with a little help from YBN Glycerin and a few additions of water. The Liscio brush is a good travel brush, but I realize now that it is too small for daily lathering. It requires much more work to make a nice lather and it is a little bit soft on the backbone. Nevertheless, it is a good brush and sufficient enough for quick travel shaves.

Completed this shave with WH toner and 4711 as an aftershave. A little bit of Aloe Vera helps to keep any soap irritation in check. Today's fragrance was Byredo's Super Cedar.
