Milord and Pré de Provence
Yet another excellent shave. The voluptuous Omega silvertip brush does a superb job and has enormous capacity. It quickly worked up a fine lather from the Pré de Provence, a shaving soap that claims to include shea butter, though that doesn’t seem to be listed among the ingredients. But the lather was fine, and the Gillette Milord (an early model, before the center bar was notched) with an Astra Superior Platinum blade delivered three smooth and trouble-free passes. A splash of the TOBS aftershave, and I’m ready for the morning—during which I’ll rush about to ready the apartment for the cleaning ladies.
