I really like this little Yaqi brush, and the lather from Van Yulay soaps is always good. This is a soap I bought after buying a sample and found I kept returning to it with pleasure.
A good lather that’s also fragrant lays the foundation for a good (i.e., enjoyable) shave, and the 102 is always a sold performer: efficient and comfortable. Three passes, a totally smooth result with no hint of damage, and then a good splash of Van Yulay’s witch-hazel-based aftershave in the soap’s fragrance.
Now that’s the way to start week.
