  • Brush: Yaqi Moka Express 24mm Mew Brown Synthetic #FAUXFUR

  • Razor: EldrormR Industries MM24 #MODERNGEM #FLIPTOP

  • Blade: Personna GEM PTFE

  • Lather: MacDuffs Soap Company - Winter Cabin - Soap

  • Post Shave: MacDuffs Soap Company - Winter Cabin - Splash

  • Fragrance: Wholly Kaw - Vor V

I think I actually prefer the OC MM over the MM24. I think my MM24 needs to go in for an alignment check, I find the blade "pops out" from under the end tooth that's supposed to hold it in place. The result is that throughout the shave, the blade is at an angle and unevenly exposed since it's popped back into the cap on one side. Today's shave was quite sweet, but nowhere near gourmand day. Vor V has a strong raspberry note that paired nicely with Winter Cabin.

Shaving with a hat on felt odd. Maybe I should've shaved outside and it would've felt more normal. I'm just glad it wasn't lather in your hat day. Missed opportunity there, eh judges? I'm glad we're nearing the end of LG. I'm even more glad LG was in June this month to give a break before AA kicks in. Last year's back to back LG into AA tested the mettle of all shavers who participated in both.
