Brush and soap:
Vie-Long Epsilon White Horse Hair "Fan Shape" 27mm and Via Barberia Shave Soap Fructi:
The firm and pungent Vie-Long Epsilon White Horse Hair "Fan Shape" 27mm is excellent for making a firm lather from the Via Barberia Shave Soap Fructi. This delicious citrus soap smells refreshing, without menthol.
Blade and razor:
Used the Treet Dura Sharp Stainless for the 4th x.
The Treet Dura Sharp Stainless is a bit stubborn this morning. Think the Mulcuto Schrägschnitt (plastic) used is too light for this Treet Dura Sharp Stainless. Tomorrow I will try the metal version. Smooth and neatly shaved, but that did require some attention.
Result: BBS.
Finally: nice citrus freshly finished with Eyüp Sabri Tuncer Kolonya Klasik Limon, Cien Men Hydro Care and Myrsol "Don Miguel 1919" After Shave.

@Hellas I can see how you'd shave with a razor in your left and one in your right hand. How you'd hold the third one however ...

Blade: Treet Durasharp

Brush and soap:
Omega 80097 and Stirling Wintergreen:
Refresh with Proraso Crema Pre Barba, froth beaten with Stirling Wintergreen's Omega 80097. This foam over the already cooling Proraso cream opens the eyes. That is a true golden dawn. Nose loose, eyes tear and easy shaving.
Blade and razor:
Used the Treet Dura Sharp Stainless for the 5th time. The Treet Dura Sharp Stainless does reasonably well, but should be able to do better. The Mulcuto Schrägschnitt (metal) is a solid razor, which gives a nice smooth result, but with this Treet Dura Sharp Stainless clearly more difficult, than normal. I continue to have a somewhat lesser experience with this blade! Tomorrow in an OC, but as you can see, what others consider to be fine, does not always work that way for yourself. Result BBS.
Finally: keep the coolness in with Alcolado Glacial, Cien Men Hydro Care and Stirling Wintergreen AS.
Well my spouse hates the wintergreen, but that's where our paths part for a moment.
