Mastro Livi Grifetto, 6/8 Full Hollow, Round Point​

Ladies and gentlemen, Mastro Livi Grifetto! The stainless steel used for making this lovely Grifetto is just amazing! Smooth and velvety, with the right amount of aggressiveness, it is a superb shaver. Not to mention the touch of olive wood scales, a typical Italian wood - as well as Umbrian, of course - a magnificent tree not only providing the very best oil, but also a beautiful wood. This shave was also the occasion to test the Denim White Aftershave I bought yesterday, not the very best around, however worth the price I paid for it, and the smell is pleasing and fresh.​

• Pre-Shave: Roberts Distilled Rose Water
• Soap: Aquagena
• Brush: Mühle Travel 31 M 530 - 21 mm
• Bowl: Chinese Bowl
• Strop: Mastro Livi Loom Strop and Hand Palm
• Razor: Mastro Livi Grifetto, 6/8 Full Hollow, Round Point
• Post-Shave: Argan Oil
• After Shave: Denim White

No, it is absorbed by the skin quickly and actually leaves the face feeling dry, smooth, and refreshed.
