  • Brush: Maggard 24mm Tuxedo Synthetic
  • Razor: Chiseled Face - Legacy Raw Titanium (#69)
  • Blade: Bolzano Superinox (Egypt) (5)
  • Lather: Stirling Soap Co. - Margaritas in the Arctic - Soap
  • Post Shave: Chatillon Lux - Weinstrasse - Aftershave
  • Post Shave: Nivea Sensitive Balm
  • Fragrance: Stirling Soap Co. - Varen - EdT

I finally found the courage to use MITA, which was included as the free sample in my last Stirling order. I'm not a fan of menthol, and this one smelled strongly of menthol, but the shave itself was easily bearable. The underlying scent (Margaritas?) is pretty nice! Fun, maybe a bit sweet. I prefer my real margaritas on the dry side, which is hard to find (granted I don't look very hard), but the aroma of a sweet margarita is still appetizing.

For post shave stuff I switched to Fougere Friday. I should really move this Weinis aftershave, because I get a lot of frag burn from it more often than not.

Ooh, Braeburn and Dickens, Revisited looks like a delightful combo

It is! Really enjoying this one. It gave the next idea for tomorrow: Dickens soap with swiss Pitralon splash. I have high hopes for this combo
