Classy looking setup.

Classy looking setup.

Thank you so much..It's fun to use and quite efficient..

 

[p.b]

I think I like this standard density Mühle Sorona knot as much as the extra dense.

Pre shave: Hot shower and Neutrogena glycerin soap bar
Razor: 1956 Gillette flare tip super speed
Blade: Feather (4)
Brush: Yaqi 26mm Bluish Violet synthetic
Bowl: Captains choice copper
Soap: Noble Otter Rainroot
Post shave: Noble Otter Rainroot aftershave splash

A nice shave with the amazing scent of Rainroot on a suitably rainy day.

I somehow managed to get a nice deep, papercut thin slice right on the pad of my thumb earlier today which made using the razor effectively a bit of a challenge, and threw my technique off quite a bit, but I got there eventually.. and carefully.
It was probably just as well I went with the foolproof super speed and not something more aggressive.

Noble Otters Rainroot whipped up to a beautifully slick lather and made for a very pleasant experience in spite of the aforementioned challenge.

I finished off with the matching splash which instantly did the job of soothing and cooling the skin.
This is one scent I just cant get over and of the ones in my rotation which I look forward to using the most.

They've hit on something magic here.

Hope you're all having a good week so far!
