Nancy Boy and the Mixed Midget, with a Baby Smooth shave

A small brush with a knot of badger and board and tiny handle next to a travel-size white tub of shaving cream, on top of which stands a black DE razor with a ribbed handle. Next is a small glass bottle of green aftershave with a large black cap. The bottle is labeled "Irisch Moos."

Omega’s Mixed Midget (aka Mighty Midget) is a very good brush whose knot is a combination of badger and boar. The handle is small but the knot is a good size — its loft is greater than the length of the handle.

My little tub of Nancy Boy Signature Shave Cream is drawing near the end, but it still was easy to load the brush fully. I do love this shave cream, and I may feel impelled to replace the tub when it’s gone.

RazoRock’s Baby Smooth razor lived up to its name and gave me a very nice shave — not quite BBS, but close. This razor is a pleasure to use: extremely comfortable and for me extremely efficient. (Some have found that for them it’s not quite so efficient.)

A splash of Irisch Moos with a couple of squirts of Grooming Dept’s Aion Hydrating Gel and the shave is done. And we have snow on the ground.

The tea this morning is Murchie’s Balmoral Blend: “a strong, traditional, rich blend of bright Ceylon and malty Assam teas.”
