Vacation time with an Italian Razor

I am on vacation and I decided to take with me my latest Mastro Livi "Rasoio Italiano", this magnificent beauty made of artisan stainless damascus steel, of course made by Mastro Livi himself. I thought this "Italian razor" needed a good companion so I paired it with the well known Omega bristle brush "bandiera italiana" because of its three bands handle having the color of the Italian flag. I guess they look great together and the brush is the usual Omega lathering maker: it made a huge amount of lather with my artisan shaving soap. As for Mastro Livi stainless steel damascus, the more I use it the more I realize this one is a super efficient and amazing blade, absolutely an impeccable and extraordinary super performing straight razor. To put the icing on the cake and to get a relief from this summer heat, I got a super cooling breeze from my Thyrrenus aftershave, the one I especially made for summertime with a strong refreshing effect on the skin. The right cooling touch for this super hot summer!
