a shower with Roger & Gallet Imperial Bouquet soap
my shave:
Omega brush
Gillette Good News disposable razor
Williams soap

I must say I got a damn good shave with the Williams soap today, it lathered very well for once with just a little extra water in the mug!

[atnight]

in the shower:
EXTREME Mach 3 Power with new cartridge
EXTREME Brave Soldier Shower Shave (we EXTREMISTS don't need brushes!!)
Sharp's tuner
a couple dabs of code blue
tony's choice ASB


results- extremely so-so. Close in some places, not so much in others. A couple areas pushed to the point where bumps would appear with repeated shaves using this system. Worth a try to know what everyone else is doing, but I could probably achieve the same speedy results and no irritation by doing a thorough first pass with my Progress and then touch ups/passes with the Bump Fighter razor. That's what I do when I'm in a big hurry.

 

[crackstar]

first a great hot shower
my shave:
my prep with 2 hot towels
Edwin Jagger brush
Dovo straight razor
Kent shaving soap
Lubriderm unscented moisturiser
Crabtree & Evelyn Sienna edt (beautiful!)

ah, shaving can be so delightful when you have the right stuff!
