Brush and soap:
J&T® Zebrano OUMO Brush SHD WT (Super High Density, White Tips) finest 2-band badger 24 mm and TFS Anniversary Italian Fern:
After some wrestling the past few days with some lesser shaves, today a set-up that can not miss: J&T® Zebrano OUMO Brush SHD WT (Super High Density, White Tips) finest 2-band badger 24 mm with the TFS Anniversary Italian Fern. My tastiest fern soap with a nice brush gave a fine foam with just the right scent in my Polish scuttle.
Blade and razor:
The Racer Super Class Platinum for the 1st x used.
New blade from the Lord's stable: Racer Super Class Platinum. This is a good one! Then the combination RazoRock Game Changer 0.84-P with this Racer Super Class Platinum is top.
Result: BBS.
Finally: Some freshness, floral and fougere in the after care with the Eyüp Sabri Tuncer Kolonya Klasik Limon, Weleda Aftershave Balsam and Loris E-003 Acqua Di Gio finished it all off. The result is a smooth face and good feeling. This way it feels good again!

The tuxedo and the small can for the Frozen sample isn't the best combination.
I like the softness of the tuxedo, but I would like more backbone, somebody who can direct me to another brush?
All in all a nice shave!
Have a good weekend!

OUMO Tuxedo 30mm
CBL Soaps - Russian Tea
Parker Semi Slant
Timor (1)
Humprey’s Astringent
Barrister & Mann - Chesshire AS
Stirling Sandpiper ASB

This soap reminds me more of the Dutch “speculaas” than to tea. The tea is online on the background. However, a nice smelling and performing soap. I am very Smooth!
 
Brad Sears/Morris & Forndran 1XL in Finest Badger, Disco Haze
Mondial - Tobacco Verde
Matador - Micro
Voskhod (1)
Tunney Aluin

This soap has a very pleasant smell, lather is fine, so I should use it more often.
The Matador in position 1, the mildest position, has a bladegap of near 2mm. That does not shave pleasantly. Will see tomorrow what I can manage with the adjustmentkey.
