Mar 26, 2024 - 🫖 Tea Tuesday: Forty-Two 🍵

  • Brush: Dogwood Handcrafts 28mm Declaration Grooming B13 Badger Knot
  • Razor: EldrormR Industries MM24 #MMarch24
  • Blade: Personna GEM PTFE [26]
  • Lather: Barrister and Mann - 42 - Soap (Excelsior)
  • Post Shave: Southern Witchcrafts/Shawn Maher - Gravefruit II - Aftershave (Alcohol Free)
  • Fragrance: Chatillon Lux - Yuzu/Rose/Patchouli - Eau de Toilette

I'm shamelessly using @djundjila@sub.wetshaving.social's setup from here. It is remarkable how each of the notes play off one another. I really enjoyed this scent journey and will definitely revisit it.

I started with an unintentional slurry lather. I hydrated the brush the way I would for Omnibus, but then realized I was dealing with Excelsior. The lather for the second pass was better, but the mix up didn't affect the shave either way.

Rating: 4/5
