13/10/21
Pre - Shower, Cold water face rinse
Brush - Vintage Badger Travel Brush
Soap - OSP No. 08
Razor - 1906 Gillette Single Ring #663851 OC Travel Set
Blade - Rapira Platinum Lux (3)
Post - Cold water Rinse, TC's infused Witch Hazel
Balm - Barts Balm Amber and Moroccan Jasmine Balm & Lotion
A/S - Pinaud Brandy Spice
The Culmak was added to the picture just in case the little Vintage set brush disintegrated during use. No need really, i loaded for about 25 seconds and set about a face painting / scrub lather, i was really surprised how well it worked, yes it needed a bit longer but the lather was perfect. The Razor / Blade combo worked really well during the WTG and then an ATG pass for a really comfortable finish. I enjoyed that!
The "little fella" standing between 2 x 26mm knots. The handle is definitely a natural material, i am not sure if it is Bone, Horn or Ivory, the handle unscrews at the mid join and has a flat unscrew-able bottom disk to close every thing up (3 Pieces). It has plenty of backbone and a bit scritch. It is quite well made and sturdy, it shed about 3 hairs during the 2 pass face lather and looks OK after a rinse.
I may have to add a Wee Scot to the collection now.
Stay and enjoy your day All
