  • Prep: hot shower
  • Brush: Yaqi 24mm Naples Tuxedo Knot (synthetic)
  • Razor: Gillette Slim Adjustable H3 (1962, 3rd quarter)
  • Blade: Gillette Super Blue (2)
  • Lather: Wholly Raw - Monaco Royale - Premium Shaving Soap
  • Post Shave: Wholly Raw - Monaco Royale - Artisan Aftershave Balm

I really love Monaco Royale. It's sweet but only lightly sweet. It mostly feels to me like a dark scent, yet there are also some bright overtones. In short, it's a perfect, any day of the week, any time of year scent for me. Great soap base too.

Slim Adjustable++

Another razor I should use from time to time!

I like to change the setting for each pass.

I haven't done this in a long time. You go aggressive to milf, or mild to aggressive?
