Greetings,
(Christmas Eve Face & Head Shave)
As it's Christmas day tomorrow I have chosen some of my pre-Christmas presents for the shave.
Maiden shave using the recently purchased Omega 11137 boar brush.
I gave the Omega 11137 my pre-cleaning ritual a five minute soak in tepid water & pre-wash with Dettol anti-bacterial & Palmolive hand bars soap leaving it to soak for a few minutes to get rid of any manufacturing nasties, remove any loose hairs repeated the process to remove the faint natural piggy fragrance which the soap removed and finally a rinse with warm & cold water to remove any soap residue. I let the brush fully dry out for 48 hours making it ready to use.
As with most boar/natural hair brushes with regular use it'll be a great brush especially for face /dome-head lathering.
Another wonderful addition to my humble boar brush collection.
The inexpensive Monsavon Au Lait shaving soap from my first use i was swooned by it's performance and the post shave feel you get from it. Another shaving soap like MWF "The Fat" I could quite easily use with each of my shaves and be happy and content, but like us all i like variety with my shave set ups.
A wonderfully smooth 2 pass + pick ups close comfortable Christmas eve face & head shave with no errors to report.
Finishing the shave off with a few small squirts of Milton Lloyd The Man Cobalt EdT to the pulse points.
My face & precious swede are feeling super smooth & smelling divine.
Stay safe, and enjoy your Christmas eve ladies & gentlemen.
