Pre: Mickey Lee Soapworks Lime Pre Shave Butter
Razor: Merkur 34C
Blade: Astra SP
Soap: Reuzel Shave Cream
Post: Reuzel After Shave
This was a brushless shave. Instructions advise use it with or without brush. Tried it with a brush, it's just not lathering. So I did it without a brush. The cream provides slickness/glide but there's a lack of cushion. It's a good option for a travel kit and shaving in a rush.
Don't know if its the razor and blade combo or the cream but the shave was not as close as my usual ones.
The post shave on the other hand - terrific, like always with this aftershave. Silky smooth.
