After experimenting with a variety of blades, razors and soaps I zeroed in on what worked and for 3 years now there’s been almost no change in my every day shave kit. I use the same soap, brush and razor every day. Here’s the items I purchases in 2017.
It doesn’t have to cost a fortune. In fact the items listed here will push me far into 2018. I didn’t need blades because I’d bought a few hundred in the beginning and still have some left. Same with several aftershaves I’d stocked up on at the beginning (Old Spice, Aqua Velva, Clubman and Bay Rum).
I enjoy every morning’s shave with my simple kit.
