SOTD 27 July 2015


Let's start this week with some challenges: going for fresh if it's possible and also going with our favorite brushes. Let's see.
What I can say it could be mad for someones: I have badger but I'm not fond of badger.
But I'm fond of boars (the bigger kntos, the better) and I'm liking a lot the synthetics, especially the later productions.

Let's start with #5 in my personal chart. The Proraso Omega.


In the meantime this balsamic soap it's giving me great satisfaction. Slick and rich lather, powerful scent and not for last a wonderful chilling effect.
My love for Stirling grows on every shave, it's a pity that are not so much. But it's my serious candidate for my Top 5 for soaps.
