Roam++
Clubman Special Reserve worked really well, and Hamami sort of rounds everything out while keeping the stank theme going.

• Prep: hot shower
• Brush: Simpson Chubby 2 Synthetic Fibre Shaving Brush, 27mm
• Razor: Gillette Flare Tip Superspeed A1 (1955)
• Blade: Lord Super Chrome (2)
• Lather: Barrister & Mann - Adagio
• Post Shave: Barrister & Mann Aftershave Balm - Adagio

I rarely use my Chubby, because as it turns out apparently I don’t like a brush this “chubby”. But it was a gift, and so I use it from time to time. Plus I don’t have all that many brushes and it’s nice to have some variety.

• Brush: Yaqi 26mm Synthetic
• Razor: GEM MMOC
• Blade: GEM Stainless
• Lather: Proraso - White - Soap
• Post Shave: Dr. Jons - Pans Pipe - Aftershave

Nope. I don’t know why I chose the MMOC after a mediocre shave yesterday. As per usual the MMOC was harsh and very nippy.
