This combination seem to be a winning combination for me, Straight in with an ATG pass then some touch ups for a very close comfortable finish.
Stay safe and enjoy your day All.

Friday's Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Colgate Shaving Mug Soap
Tom's Brush B-3 Badger
Unmentionable by Tom
Unmentionable Blade

The Colgate Shaving Mug Soap lathered well with Tom's Brush B-3 Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Unmentionable Razor by Tom with an Unmentionable Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Florida Water. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

I have decided to try to use Boar Bristle brushes only this month accompanied by the Proraso Green set (Well, until i get sick).
I find that a dip in warm water and shake out before loading, especially the Semogue brushes, stops them becoming lather hogs which seems to happen if i pre soak the brush. A great face lather today just dipping the tips and building the lather to the consistency required, Oh! i am also not too shy on the loading.
A really nice 2 pass shave with a touch up on the whirlpools giving me a really nice finish - just not quite BBS, however, close enough to leave it. 
The razor was singing during the shave, a lovely soundtrack.
I did get a little indication from the splash although it was fleeting.
I do find the "scummy" residue on the sink and razor from the Proraso soap a bit of a pain, however, the post shave Proraso products are really nice for my skin.
I'll see how i get on?
Stay safe and enjoy your day All.
