Prep: Hot shower
Brush: Yaqi 2 band
Razor: Karve CB D plate
Blade: Wizamet SI (2)
Lather: Proraso - Menthol and Eucalyptus - Soap
Post Shave: Proraso - Menthol and Eucalyptus - Aftershave

Great shave! First time using Proraso green. Nice menthol feeling for a warm day. Lather wasn't the slickest, but could be my inexperience with it. Was still left with a very close comfortable shave!

You’re SPOT ON with the Proraso slickness, I hand lather it only and plenty of it.  In the summer, I wash my face with it, I think it’s the coolness of the menthol I really like, lol.

Good to know it wasn't just me! I hand lather also, I'll need to load more next time. Had barely any left after two passes. The lather was nice and protective, just lacking on the slickness department. Not enough to steer me away from using it again ofcourse, I could see it becoming a summertime regular! I like the idea of using it as a face wash, I think I'll try that out...

Don't see many VP leonhardy brushes on here. Very nice.

Thank you. I like it a great deal. Some say the longer loft is too floppy, I use a light touch lathering & love the cloud-soft feel. I don't find it floppy, but luxurious.
