May your memories of him be fond. No follow-up of full gear is needed as this photograph says so much.

Pre-Shave: @khun_diddy Olive Oil Soap, cold water
Razor: Guerrilla
Blade: Voskhod (2)
Brush: Morris & Forndran Tigris
Lather: Mystic Water Lime
Post-Shave: Alum, Stirling Bay Laurel Witch Hazel, Australian Emu Oil

I'd bet that adds up for a nice calm face after the shave is all said and done. What kind of weather are you in? I have tried Emu oil on joints around the ankles and knees. What is it like on the facial skin?

Excellent resin on the M&F handle. Cheers! Wink

Thank you very much - indeed it was a wonderful shave and my face was truly happy afterwards Happy2

Spring has started here in Adelaiaide - which is probably nicer than most summers in the northern hemisphere ~25C during the day, ~15C at night with the occasional rain - perfect for me Big Grin

I always use an oil/fat as the last step of my shave - my favourite being extra virgin olive oil. But my usual supply has dried out and I had a bottle of Emu Oil standing around. Also very nourishing Wink
