• Brush: Thäter Faux Ivory 29mm 2-band Silvertip
• Razor: Tatara Muramasa (setting: 3) #DIAL
• Blade: Feather Hi-Stainless (1)
• Lather: Declaration Grooming - After the Rain - Soap
• Post Shave: Thayers - Cucumber - Toner
• Post Shave: Unilever - Brut - Aftershave

2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.

The Declaration Grooming description of this scent is "Like a walk through a forest after a spring shower". So, I've got that going for me -- which is nice.

After the Rain was among the first soaps I purchased when I became interested in the hobby side of wetshaving. There's a tiny bit of sentiment attached to each use. A very nice shave today.

I'd say that Brut goes well with today's soap scent but, if you're of a certain age, Brut goes well with everything :)

I'm skipping today's challenge. It's too much like real work for me, and I'm (sort of) retired.
