Brush: Yaqi Cashmere Synthetic Shaving Brush, Dandelion Green Handle, 24mm
Razor: Edwin Jagger DE 89L
Blade: Gillette Silver Blue (1)
Lather: Barrister & Mann - Leviathan - Shaving Soap
Post Shave: Zingari Man - The Watchman - After Shave Balm
I did something I literally never do today - I used a balm that doesn’t match my soap. I know most, if not all, of you do that regularly (or aftershave if not necessarily balm), but for me I get excited about having the scent that I shaved with linger throughout the day. But my Leviathan balm is almost gone, and I used up my Watchman soap long before my Watchman balm and I still have a decent amount left, so this seemed like a natural time to try it out. And I’m pleased to say I didn’t hate it! The two scents have kinda sorta similar themes and I can see myself doing it again sometime.
