  • Brush: Dogwood Handcrafts "Kashyyyk" B4 #COMPOSITE #SHD
  • Razor: Leaf Elite
  • Blade: Wizamet (2)
  • Lather: Chiseled Face – Black Rose
  • Post Shave: LA Shaving Soap Co. - Black Rose
  • Fragrance: Chiseled Face - Black Rose EdP

Florals are not typically my first choice, but I do enjoy the scent of rose, and the LA Shaving Soap Co take on it. To me it is a slightly darker (I suppose somewhat indicated by the "Black") take, while still distinctly smelling of Rose.

I scooped a 3g "turd" (technical term?) of soap as u/Cadinsor has put it in his amazing videos

Spread out in bottom of bowl

Swirled wet brush for 30 seconds clockwise, then 30 seconds counter-clockwise

Sprayed 5 sprays of distilled water (hard water problems) from my spray bottle

Continue lathering

2 more sprays of distilled water

Continued incorporating water/soap until desired consistency was reached.

Leaf Elite: 95g

1/2 Wizamet blade loaded in 2nd and 3rd position

Results:

Smooth, great smelling shave.
