It's actually funny b/c you would think a boar shaving brush would work with just any shaving soap. But that wasn't the case for today's shave. Don't get me wrong, my shave was still great but I didn't get the lather that I wanted as always. The lather consistency that I like is thick/meringue style. I get a better lather with a badger brush for MW and I think today was the verdict. So hopefully the next time I use MW, a badger brush would be my choice for creating lather. Hopefully I'll remember lol. Have a wonderful day my friends!

OMG!!! Like rubbing ice on my face... Could not even feel my face for 10 minutes... I received this special SS in a PIF over a year ago - I don't use it often, but decided to pull it out this morning... It was a great shave for a hot muggy Houston morning... CCS in 2 passes.

Thought for the Day: "Integrity or 'Success' - what is your baseline...???"

Really liking Mike's soaps a lot! Been using the Lime and Barbershop soap for a while now but ordered the Orange, pepper, cedarwood and Mike sent me a sample of the Lavandin/Eucalyptus. Once again, magnificent scent and the performance is awesome.
