Pre-shave: Hot flannel, Pears soap
Brush: TroyCraft "Vazon Forest" 28mm AP G5C
Soap: Yardley Black Label
Razor: Atelier Durdan Vestige
Blade: Personna GEM Stainless
Post-shave: TND witch hazel/Stirling Bergamot Lavender witch hazel (70:30), homebrew moisturiser, Oxford & Cambridge cologne

Although I've been exploring a few fantastic new soaps lately, it's always great to return to YBL, a glorious blast from my youth.

I had sort of expected the Vestige to become overshadowed by La Faulx, but that hasn't been the case. The Vestige is still the one I'd run back into a burning building for.
