Taylor of Old Bond Street Sandalwood scent. Old-fashioned scent and it lathers up like a charm with a badger hair brush.

I recently started using a new shave gel called Billy Jealousy it was voted an award winning shave gel by Esquire so I figured I'd try it out. Almost 2 weeks in, I quite like it.

Neither, good old  fashioned
shaving soap is without doubt the best!

I am currently rotating with TOBS Sandalwood Shaving Cream and Mike's Natural Soap (lemongrass scent).  Both are excellent products.  Of course: I use my brush to make it lather.

Im new at this, but the first 4 shaves were done using Proraso with a badger brush (that's what I use on my face with my DE razor). Hard to imagine a better feeling...

I switch around between BaldGuyz gel, Billy Jealousy Hydroplane and HeadSlick. I also occasionally use Shave Secret oil or KOS Kinexium in combination with the above. Always on the lookout for something new and better and constantly experimenting.

HeadSlick menthol for me. Honestly can't beat it.

Here is a nice take,  the old cliché:  "Variety is the spice of life..."

But only after you have decided if you are a "Wet" shaver or a ......what's the other appropriate word? guys, help...please...

I picked up a tube of Cremo Shaving Creme the other day and have had great results with it.  I wasn't expecting much and picked it up primarily because it was sold with a rebate that makes it effectively free.  But, I have completed two complete head/face shaves with it with nearly no nicks and a really slick finish at the end.
