Gillette Toggle at 5 (thanks to MTGrayling)/Gillette Plat.
Rooney 3,1
T&S West Indian Limes
Aqua Velva Ice Blue a/s
Two-pass BBS with minor touch-up. No burn.
My first time using a Toggle. After poor experiences with the Fatboy and Slim adjustables, I was only expecting disappointment.
I was wrong.

Crazy shave day. I started with ATG blade buffing, then XTG finishing up with ATG. No irritation at all. Now that I'm smooth n smell like Gramps, off to the store and flirt w/some blue hairs.

Taking the day off.
Yesterdays was far too smooth and close.
So instead, I am going to hit up a couple of stores for more supplies!

Second day with the Wilkinson. Seems to be smoothing up, but I'm not 100% sure. I'll give it a go tomorrow to see. Btw, now that I look at it, I seem to have gone with a theme today.

Sunday evening
Prep: Kyle’s prep
Razor: Solingen 5/8 Inox (stropped on a Thiers-Issard paddle strop)
Brush: Edwin Jagger best badger
Soap/cream: Cella Crema Da Barba All'olio Di Mandorla
Aftershave: Nivea Sensitive ASB
I got the Cella soap from a small cutlery shop in Antwerp, Belgium a couple of months ago. It cost me about 7 euro for a tub filled with 150g of soap. This soap is one of the best kept secrets in soapland, it's really outstanding. Like Tabac it is tallow based but unlike Tabac, it is not triple milled. Be sure to buy it if you can find it somewhere, it's excellent stuff.
