Saturday shave

2D8FAFC8-53FA-4905-987B-C0861BE2A6F9.jpeg


Prep: Cleansing Story White Clay foam
Soap: NO The Noir et Vanille
Brush: Sanax badger-cased boar
Razor: RazoRock German 37 on RR bulldog handle, #10
Blade: Derby Extra, #3 and banked
Post: alum -> NO TNeV aftershave

Definite fall-off from the Derby tonight. Although it felt like I was going to pay for it with the alum, I really didn't--more feedback than the last two shaves, but still minor in the grand scheme of things. I wasn't going to push it a fourth shave, though, so I banked it.
 
Brush: 20mm silvertip
soap: LA woody lavender
Post: Thayer's rose petal
after shave: Avon leather
razor: Pre-war Tech on a Marley Machine Works SS handle
Blade: Czechoslovakian-made Astra Superior Stainless for the right side of my face and Russian-made one for the left
I really love this brush
