Pre-shave: Pure glycerine soap
Lather: Prairie Creations’ KISS cream w/ Tea Tree Oil
Brush: Semogue TSN 2012 LE mixed badger/boar
Razors: Merkur 39C slant and Parker 22R, both with a fresh Perma-Sharp Super blade
Post-shave: Cold water rinse, Alum block and Krampert’s Finest Bay Rum

First shave with the KISS cream – very soft in the consistency, and made for a very frothy lather. Too much water perhaps? I’ll use less next time.
Also getting back into trying out the blades from the various sampler packs I gotten. This one was sharp enough, but not the smoothest. Have to see how it behaves further into the week.
Overall a DFS and a great start on the work week.
