Prep: Shower and face wash with Nivea Sensitive Face Wash
Pre: Proraso White pre shave cream
Brush: Omega Pure Bristle
Cream: Proraso White
Razor: Gillette Tech
Blade: Gillette Nacet (1)
Post: Boots Tea Tree & Witch Hazel
Balm: Avon Mesmerise Black
EDC: Avon Mesmerise Black

Three passes and pick ups and not far from BBS. It's easy to see why the Tech was (is) so popular. Very forgiving, particularly with a smooth blade like the Nacet which is becoming my favourite (albeit in a very small sample size so far).

Prep: Valobra Glycerlanolina soap, Myrsol Emulsion
Brush: Paladin Lotus Select Badger
Soap: CRSW Glide Barbiere Sapone
Razor: Blackland Blackbird
Blade: Polsilver Super Iridium (1)
Post: CRSW Alcohol-Free Aftershave Lotion
Scent: YSL Rive Gauche EdT

First shave with the Blackbird. Aggressive but precise. A five day growth was scythed down effortlessly. Quite a bit of blade feel, but no irritation.
Was DFS+ after two passes - impressive. Went for the ATG pass and all good - pretty much BBS and no "scraped" feeling on the face that I sometimes get with aggressive razors.
The test for me will be how much skin stands up to repeated use, but a promising start.
