• Prep: Cold Water
• Brush: Semogue The Shave Nook Mistura Final Edition 26.5 mm
• Razor: Fatip Classic Grande
• Blade: Feather (76)
• Lather: Chiseled Face - Midnight Stag - Soap
• Post Shave: Chiseled Face - Midnight Stag - Aftershave
• Fragrance: Chiseled Face - Midnight Stag - Eau de Parfum

I tried a SOC mixed brush a couple of years ago and I didn’t like it, I found it prickly and way too scruby. Now that there’s only 1 day growth of stubble is a really nice way of having an idea of how the knot feels and it feels like a fluffy boar brush if that makes any sense, scrubby like a broken boar brush and fluffy feeling like some 2 band badger brushes, it kinda reminds me of a B3 Declaration knot.But I guess that I lucked out on this one because I still hear some of the mixed semogues are still prickly.
