  • Brush: Rad Dinosaur Creations Stars w/ G5C
  • Razor: Yates Merica
  • Blade: Gillette Silver Blue
  • Lather Mike’s Natural Soaps - Orange, Cedarwood, and Black Pepper
  • Post Shave: Catie’s Bubbles - Tonsorial Parlour

Lather was acceptable at best today. Definitely gonna need more practice with it. This seems to be a harder soap and will probably need more water and loading time to get a good lather. This is scent is light but refreshing as I get mostly orange from it. It paired great with my new Tonsorial Parlour splash as that has that citrus and floral body to it. Happy Tuesday!

More water more soap!

I have started to pick up on more of the cedarwood and black pepper as I've used the soap more. It's really a great scent.
