Tallow+Steel Morikami
APShave handle with Oumo manchurian
EJ Diffusion razor with Treet Platinum

My unsophisticated nose can't tell the difference between of Morikami and Shikoku; both interesting citrus scents, with really good soap base.

Great shave today. It speaks for itself.....soap is Arko.

Comments	Today is the 13th shave with MdC and it’s on a Friday! The brush today is my Uomo da Vinci 290 Silvertip. It may not be the prettiest brush but is one dense brush that excels at making lather. I continue to use the Feather/Feather combo for the 7th and final shave. A perfect shave. Have a great day and weekend, folks.

Blade: Gillette Nacet (1)
Bowl: Captain's Choice Heavyweight copper
Brush: Yaqi 26mm Synthetic
Prep: Shower
Prep: Kiehl's Facial Fuel Cleanser

Changed the blade and the lather, but still got the same excellent results. Nacet reminded me why I stopped using Astra SP as my daily driver. Very smooth shave with very little feedback from the Floid.

Lonestar is such a nice scent. Mild and pleasant. My 4 year-old likes it because from the tub it smells like pancakes. He's not totally wrong.
