  • Brush: Chisel and Hound – 26mm AP Shave Co Synbad #COMPOSITE #FAUXFUR #FRANKENBRUSH
  • Razor: Gem G-Bar #FLIPTOP
  • Blade: Gem Blade
  • Lather: AA Shaving – The Hunt
  • Post Shave: Stirling Soap Co – Deep Blue Sea
  • Fragrance: Armani – Acqua di Gio

First time using a Gem and it wasn’t too bad. I understand the G-Bar is a pretty forgiving one to start with. At first I think my angle was a little to steep, but when I kept the razor’s head flat against my face, things went better. Good shave with no nicks or cuts.

It was also my first time using AA Shaving. u/iamhonestlylying sent me a bunch of smushes for these games, so thanks to him I can participate today!

And it’s also my first Lather Games! So I’m looking forward to winning #ROTY! A friend has been trying to get me into the hobby of wetshaving for some time. I’ve been using a DE for a little while, but never really got into the artisanal product side until somewhat recently, so I’m looking forward to trying a lot of new-to-me things this month!

Happy shaving ya’ll!
