My Baili goat- and horse-hair brush did a fine job with Meißner Tremonia’s Pink Grapefruit shaving paste, though the third-pass lather from this brush is still a little sparse. It may need a bit more use to be fully broken in.
The inimitable iKon #102 did a totally wonderful job, as it always does, and three passes left my face totally smooth, an especially nice contrast to the two-day stubble I sported at the start.
A splash of Royal Copenhagen with a couple of squirts of Hydrating Gell added finished the job and started the week on a pleasurable note.
