  • Prep: hot shower
  • Brush: Yaqi Cashmere Synthetic Shaving Brush, Dandelion Green Handle, 24mm
  • Razor: Gillette Flare Tip Superspeed A1 (1955)
  • Blade: Gillette Silver Blue (2)
  • Lather: Barrister & Mann - Leviathan Shaving Soap
  • Post Shave: Barrister & Mann - Leviathan - Aftershave Balm

  I’m really getting down to the end of the Leviathan balm, having to bang it upside down against my hand to get some out. I do kinda wish they had a different container than the pump bottle. I don’t know what a better alternative would be, but it’s frustrating not being able to get it all out.

    Pumps are the best for balm 100% IMO.

      What’s your method for getting the last bits out at the end? Or do you just not bother about getting every last drop?

  • Brush: Summer Break Soaps w/Maggard 28mm Silvertip Badger
  • Razor: Blackland Era - Level 3 SB
  • Blade: Bolzano Superinox (German) (1)
  • Lather: Spearhead Shaving - Seaforth! Heather - Soap
  • Post Shave: Brut - Splash On
  • Post Shave: Nivea Sensitive Balm

  I really thought today was tub-kill day for Heather, but it looks like it’ll be tomorrow.

  This might be my favorite hardware setup. I love this brush, and the Era with a Bolzo is really good.
