  • Brush: Wolf Whiskers - "Gianmaria" w/Maggard 26mm Synthetic
  • Razor: Gold Dollar Straight Razor (9)
  • Lather: Wholly Kaw - Cuero Oscuro - Soap
  • Post Shave: Southern Witchcrafts - Incorporeal - Toner
  • Post Shave: Dove - Men+Care Ultra-Hydra - Cream
  • Fragrance: Fanzine Saponifications - Caravaggio - EdP

I haven't used this soap sample in a really long time. It's old and getting hard, but I was able to spread it around on the inside of a tub lid and load it no problem.

I enjoyed the lather, but I got some mild frag burn which took away from an otherwise enjoyable shave. Oh well!
