AA24 - Day 19 - Beloved

Brush: Zenith Multi-Color (2006 XSE) 21mm Unbleached Boar Knot

Razor: Aylsworth Razors Drakkant Plus

Blade: Gillette Platinum [19]

Lather: Stirling Soap Co. - Varen - Soap (Mutton Tallow)

Post Shave: House of Mammoth - Beloved - Splash

Fragrance: House of Mammoth - Beloved - Eau de Parfum

Tags: $ShepherdsofStirling $RawHoggin $Discord

Beloved is incredible, and being a strong, lavender-forward scent, it pairs nicely with Varen.

If this wasn’t AA, I would have already binned this blade. For the time being, I’m going to keep going with it.
