A very nice shave, which started with a great lather—well, just before that, the usual pre-shave beard wash with MR GLO. For the lather, I used my brand new Omega S-Series brush, shown in the photo. Since I eschew shaving in the shower, I can use a wood-handled brush with no problem, and I thought this guy looked very nice. And it really does the job—at least with a good soap, which is what Chiseled Face soaps seem to be, based on this one. A nice but unobtrusive fragrance, and the #101 with a Personna Lab Blue blade produced a totally smooth result in three passes.
A good splash of Sherlock aftershave, which has too much menthol for my taste, but probably just right for menthol lovers. (I like the menthol level of Floïd aftershave: detectable but not overwhelming.)
All in all, a very fine shave, and I have another soap to put in the “good soaps” list.
