  • Brush: Zenith 506U XSE
  • Razor: GEM MMOC Gen 2
  • Blade: GEM SS PTFE (65)
  • Lather: Stirling Soap Co. - Sheep
  • Post Shave: Lucky Tiger
  • Post Shave: Olay Complete
  • Post Shave: Chatillon Lux - unscented skin salve

And so August closes. What I learned this month is that I much prefer the Gen 2 MMOC over the Gen 1. I learned that Zenith unbleached knots break in just as fast as the bleached knots…at least mine did. I also learned that I really, really like the mutton tallow base from Stirling. And ai took a GEM blade farther than I ever have. Now it’s back to trying to decide what stuff to use.
