La cigale
Edego
Thayer's witch hazel
Alcalado glacial, balea ultrasensitive balsem
I got a good lather out of the la cigale soap. There is nothing wrong with the soap. My skin was a little itching afterwards. I can not say it is because of the soap or something else. I have to use it a few more times. I'm new to razor honing and straight razor shaving. The razor was sharp enough to shave with my straight razor shaving skills.

Shaving Soap / Cream: Stirling Glacial Spearmint
After Shave : Brooklyn Soap Company
After Shave Balm: Stirling Glacial Unscented
Eau de Toilette: LT Piver Lavande
Shaving Brush: Yagi 30 mm. Syntheet
Safety Razor: Charcoal Level 2 SB
Razor Blade: Lord Classic
The various painkillers are reduced and the skin will also behave comparatively better.
The Charcoal SB Level2 is a fantastic saftey razor and with a Lord Classic it was actually a less annoying shave.
Pre: mitchel woolfat bodylotion
Brush: J&T horsehair
Soap: macca root
Razor: Leresche fella & hellberg
Thayer's witch hazel
Cien x-bolt as, balea ultrasensitive balsem
I wanted to compacte the sharpness of both razors. I know now that the sharpness of the hellberg van be improved. I like the hellberg, but I think it can be sharper and smover. The hellberg spine differs in width to compensatie for the blade width.
The fella shaves really nice. I know if is not to everybody's taste, but I like the look of frameback razors.
The cien x-bolt I brought back from France.
Everybody have a nice sunday evening.

Weird shave. Lathering is no problem with a soap like this and the Yaqi brush.
When applying the lather to the face it seemed to dissipate. It was a struggle to keep the lather in a good working condition.
Maybe the MWF lotion which I used as a preshave is the culprit.
A decent shave with a not so spectacular result. No irritation though.
