Pre-shave; Warm shower, face rinse with MWF bar soap.
Brush; Simpson, Chubby 2, Faux Emerald resin handle with a 27mm Manchurian Badger knot. “Limited Edition”
Soap; Old Spice, soap puck 3.75oz (1965-75) in a late 02 milk-glass mug ‘’Grand Turk’’ (1964-78)
Razor; Gillette, 1934 2 piece from set #88, Made in England, Silver plated, 59g.

Cologne/EDP;
Moisturiser;
Attar (Perfume Oil);
Shave
; Another great shave with my personal favourite soap/splash set Old Spice, I find I’m using this combo 5-6 times a week. it’s an absolute all-round winner for me with cushion and glide, YMMV. The 88 RFB is still my favourite vintage Gillette razor and using this set up with the old design but new Chubby 2, I’ve got me a winning set!!
