  • Brush: Wald Stratos Goldvein 29mm A1 Fan
  • Razor: Iwasaki 13/16" Full Hollow Square Point Tamahagane

  • Lather: Saponificio Varesino - 70th Anniversary - Soap

  • Post Shave: Saponificio Varesino - 70th Anniversary - Aftershave
  • Post Shave: Thayers - Rose - Toner
  • Fragrance: Saponificio Varesino - 70th Anniversary - Eau de Parfum
  • Talc: Yardley Gold
     

I normally use a very wet lather, so today I went pasty and really did not like it. It did not affect my shave result much, but made rinsing and cleaning the straight razor more of a hassle. One benefit, though, was that the denser lather delivered more of the soap's fragrance which I (clearly, if you look at the photo) love.
