Van der Hagen TTO razor
Goodline blade (last in the dispensor)
Van der Hagen shaving soap unscented
Canoe aftershave


A warm shower with Dial antibacterial as prep. I used the unscented Van der Hagen soap to evaluate the Canoe aftershave that arrived today. It makes loads of lather and is quite slick and cushioning. It is inexpensive enough to use lots. This being a mild razor/blade combination it is never going to be a one pass but it did give good uniform beard reduction. I had plenty of lather for a second pass. Second pass finished it was still slick enough to buff the trouble spots without relathering. I finished with canoe. As best as I can recall they don't seem to have messed with the formula. It is a bit more sophisticated than what I have been using.
