November 4, 2024 - At it Again

  • Brush: Yaqi - Sagrada Familia 24mm synthetic
  • Razor: Rockwell - 6C (R3 plate)
  • Blade: Astra - Superior Platinum (2)
  • Lather: Stirling - Oro Valley
  • Post: Stirling - Oro Valley AS splash
  • Post: Ginger's Garden - Unscented AS balm + menthol
  • Frag: Stirling - Oro Valley EdT

Such a great scent, I'm happy to now have this trifecta in my rotation.

I had a bit of burn during my first pass that went away for the second and third. I'm hoping my skin was just feeling sensitive and that it isn't suddenly frag burn with this scent.

I also wonder whether this brush might be irritating my skin. I seem to remember I also had a bit of burning the last time I used it.
