June 2017

Received these today, from a new artisan out of California. I used the Patchouli tonight and found it to be very slick and it gave a great post shave feeling. I'll be trying the Lime tomorrow evening.

Not exactly shaving related (unless I drink some cocoa with my shave instead of coffee), a box of Mexican chocolate for making cashew clusters.

My first Wolf Whiskers brush. I really wanted a classic/vintage color scheme with a modern handle. I've always admired the old EverReady brushes so I went with solid blue and ivory. The knot is the 25mm Ultra Fan which is my first fan knot. The size of the handle fits me almost perfectly. The knot is very soft and "paints" lather very well...since I enjoy Mystic Water soaps so much, being a fantastic painter is just a huge bonus for me

BdP.  Ah.  A wonderful frag.

Killer brush HoosierShave!

That is a wonderful-looking brush! I am sure it will get the best out of that great soap.

Brush was a raffle win. The other items are new.
