Another fantastic lather with a very light but pleasant fragrance. I’m starting to wonder whether shave sticks simply produce better lather than tub soaps. I doubt it—why would that be?—but certainly every lather from this shave-stick sequence has been excellent. This morning’s lather was created with my Yaqi Target Shot, which has a somewhat different feel from my other synthetics—a bit softer.
The Fendrihan Mk II is really a fine razor. Here it is in the limited edition bronze, now past, but the stainless model is the same razor (and at a lower cost). Three comfortable passes produced perfect smoothness.
A splash of Vitos Tobacco finished the job—a “splash” being multiple sprays into the palm of my hand, then hands rubbed together and against my shaven face.
And it’s Friday before a long weekend.
