Brush: Shavemac 18/44 Silvertip D01 2-Band
Soap: Vitos Red
Razor: Fatip Lo Storto Originale
Blade: Polsilver Super Iridium (3)
ASL: Proraso Red

I love this kit. :cornut:
 
SOTD

Pre- Neutrogena Men Face Wash & warm water
Razor- Merkur 34c
Blade- Dorco (2)
Brush- Surrey boar
Soap- Proraso Red
Bowl- Fine Accoutrements
AS- Proraso Red
Cologne- TOBS Sandalwood

The other day I had a great first shave trying the Dorco for the first time, pairing it with Geo F Trumper cream.

Today's shave with Proraso was mediocre, and I suspect it's due to the fact that I just don't like Proraso croaps. I love their creams.

So, for my 3rd shave with the Dorco, I'll either go back to the GFT cream or I'll try Proraso Green cream, and re-evaluate.
