Razor: Blackbird Machined SB
Blade: GSB (4)
Soap: Stirling Spearmint
Aftershave: Stirling Spearmint Splash
Brush: ThatDarnRob Paisley Remnant
Thoughts: Kicking off the weekend with a good, clean, fresh shave. With three great consecutive shaves under the belt with my Blackbird, it has most definitely cemented its position in my den. Enjoy the weekend!

Prep: Hot towel
Pre shave: Prep
Razor: Merkur 34C HD
Blade: Permasharp
Brush: 'Jade' (Rooney Heritage 2XL Jade)
Soap: Barrister Reserve 'Spice'
Post: Cold water rinse / Witch Hazel / Wholly Kaw: Fougere Bouquet ASB
It's not very often that I get it wrong, but boy, did I drop the ball today! 'Jade' was totally the wrong brush for the Barrister Reserve, and my blade of choice really didn't work too well with the 34C, a razor which usually provides a sublime shave.... Thankfully, 'Spice' is a 'Top Tier' soap, and my face doesn't look like I had an unpleasant shave.. so it's not all bad..
