Brush: Omega 11047 Mixed Midget
Soap: Rasozero Agrumella
Razor: Fine Aluminum Slant
Blade: Wizamet Iridium Super (6)
ASL: Rasozero Agrumella*

A great shave.

On the progress chart the shaves just get better (till I hit another trough that is).

I'm really loving the TFS Budget Line. Simple scents (to stop my nose and brain from getting confused) and oh-so-easy to use. On saying that, I've only tried the Agrumella (and am already considering purchasing the 1kg block!).


* I added a 0.4g Menthol Crystal to my (nearly full) 100ml bottle of ASL. That gave me a really pleasant five minute post-shave chill. I love it when experiments work out well.
