I became tired when once in a month my canned cream, which I was using along with mach3 was completely out when I least expected it. So I decided to buy some cream in a tube and a shaving brush and have them as a backup, in case the can is once again empty and I don't have another one. I don't know why I didn't just buy another can, I think my subconscious was up to something . On the local market I bought the cream fairly easy, it was "arko moist", but I couldn't get a decent brush. Enlightenment came after I googled "shaving brush". I'm 30 years old now, and It's more than a year that I'm enjoying everyday DE shave with shaving soap and brush.
