SOTD 2019/06/20
Growth: 24 h
Pre: shaveology
Brush: cheep eBay badger (travel brush)
Soap: Eufros Roses (sample)
Razor: Viking Blades Emperor - 4.5, 2.5
Blade: Voskhod #4
Post: Witch Hazel + Nivea sensitive
Passes: 2 - WTG, XTG
Rating: 3.8/5

4th use on the Voskhod started to feel more scratchy than what I like. Very fortunately Eufros’ soap saved the day. Super silk with a second to none post shave feel. Scent is not too elaborate but it’s a real joy to use.
My travel brush (cheap eBay badger) is OK for a few days but for longer stays it doesn’t cut it.
Overall a good shave, irritation free though not the best.
Wrap up: Voskhod brilliant on the first 2 usages, 3rd use OK, 4th a bit scratchy for my taste. Cheap eBay brush, looking forward to change it!

Used this gear to effect - one of the closest shaves ever. I've also grown to really like this scent profile as time has gone on.
