Aftershave Ariana & Evans Barbiere Sofisticato
A nice shave today using the Leaf Twig and pairing it with a feather blade really makes a superb combination.
When I first got this razor I had very low expectations from it but it proved me very very wrong.
It has turned out to be a very competent light weight razor that shaves incredibly well and probably the most agile in my collection, I have even managed to do a full head shave with it without any issues.
I do have downsides to it though, I don't like the huge hole in the bottom of the handle and it just doesn't excite me like my Hawk does, I also just can't seem to get that glass finish feel on my face. that said again I want to reiterate it's a very nice razor.
The little boar brush is from my very first cheap DE razor set, it has an amazing feel on my face now it's fully broken in and lathers brilliantly.
It's probably why I never amassed a huge collection of brushes as the few I have seem to do exactly what I want and never felt the need to keep searching, that being said I have 2 of the special editions ordered and can't wait to try them when the time comes.
In all another great shave today and have an amazing day everyone.
