    • Brush: Frank Shaving Butterscotch Classic handle w/ DS Cosmetics 24mm SHD G7 Synthetic knot #SHD
    • Razor: Razorock Game Changer .68-P #CNC
    • Blade: Gillette Silver Blue (2)
    • Preshave: Proraso – Eucalyptus Oil and Menthol Cream
    • Lather: Yaqi – Miyaqi
    • Post Shave: Nivea – Sensitive Post Shave Balm

    Issey Miyake is a wife fav, so I gave the Miyaqi dupe a try (Master Soap Creations makes it for Yaqi). Never used MSC before and similar to other first times with new (to me) artisans I had a close shave with a bit of razor burn. More practice will determine whether I didn’t do a good enough job building the lather or that the MSC base doesn’t work for me. LG PRACTICE #ROTY

    This is the first of a 10-day vacation in the Philippines with my family (yea!). Previously I’ve looked for excuses to not shave on vacation, but now that I’ve found a shaving technique that works well with my face, software and hardware I’m really looking forward to starting the day off with an enjoyable shave.

    Kept it simple and was rewarded with a 2-pass DFS. Excellent prep shave leading into the Month of Lather. LG noob out.
