Rooney Polo 1 Ivory Finest (24/54)
Ethos Grooming Peppermint body shave bar (prototype)
Haircut & Shave P076-SB Copper/Triad Aristocrat Brass
Wilkinson Sword 'New' (1)
Woods of Windsor aftershave

I face-lathered this time with the bar and had much better results, with excellent lather. The 'New' blade felt rough, which isn't unusual with a blade's first shave, but I even got a couple nicks; for me it's just not as good as the Light Brigade.

Rooney 3/2 Faux Horn Finest (24/54)
Ethos Grooming Honeysuckle shaving soap
Wolfman WR2-SB 0.95/WRH2
Wilkinson Sword 'New' (2)
Ethos Grooming Honeysuckle aftershave

An excellent shave with my current favorite software, although the blade remains harsh. I followed the shave with Issey Miyake Nuit d'Issey Noir Argent, which paired beautifully with the honeysuckle.
