48-hour beard today:
Gillette Red Tip from '56/Personna Lab Blue blade (2)
Mix of Trumper's Almond cream/ Erasmic soap in the red tub
AP Shave Co. synthetic tuxedo brush
Proraso Red AS, Assured lotion, Clubman powder
Pre-shower again: I washed my face and throat with Dial soap, applied a little Trumper's as a pre-shave, then loaded the brush with Erasmic and face-lathered. Very slick. Pass 1, WTG; pass 2, ATG, and done. Not BBS except on the cheeks, but that's fine.
Verdict: 9.5.
