23 October 2013

Razor: Cobra Classic
Blade: Feather Professional (1)
Brush: Mühle VIVO Black Fibre
Soap: Cella
AS: Krampert's Finest Bay Rum

Image

Ah, a fresh Feather Pro in the Cobra is one of the best feelings you can experience in shaving. The VIVO BF also set the stage perfectly by turning a small amount of soap into a dense & slick lather.

Thursday evening

Post-shave, all I did was to rub the remaining Stephan Shave Cream on my face and splash a bit of water on it, dried it off, and it is very smooth.
