Cobra Classic
Feather Pro (6)
Brothers Bristles Tuxedo
MdC Fougere
Witch Hazel
Fine Lavender


Another great shave this morning. I replaced the knot in the Brothers Bristles handle with a Tuxedo knot I received as a gift. The Tuxedo knot looks fantastic and has good backbone with soft tips. As expected the MdC was very easy to lather. A 2 pass shave with touch ups ended in my normal near BBS. I finished the shave with a splash of Fine Lavender. I hope everyone has a great Thursday.

Mastro Livi Inox, 6/8 Full Hollow, Round Point

In these days I like shaving with small Mastro Livi blades and I am using all of my 6/8 razors made by the revered and worldwide famous artisan from Perugia. It is the case of today's shave as I chose this stainless steel 6/8 full ground with a round point. Lovely shave, smooth and close as usual, Mastro Livi razors always deliver the excellence of shave. I also like lately using my Mastro Livi brushes as I believe the lofts he puts on these brushes are excellent and a joy to use. This bristle brush is absolutely amazing with a stiff backbone however soft enough to be pleasurable on the skin. Pinaud Clubman Classic did the rest with its round fragrance and good post shave action.​
