Queen Charlotte Soap again

with 2 comments

Another shave with the Queen Charlotte shaving soap, which produced a fine lather with the Omega 643167 synthetic-bristle brush. I’m growing increasingly fond of the “artificial badger” brushes, which seem to have exactly the right resilience and loft for me. The Mühle open-comb with a Swedish Gillette blade did a fine job, and then the Intesa aftershave balm provided a very nice finish.

  1. I believe we’ve got the same brush, but doesn’t it seem a bit small?

  2. To me it seems perfect, but I lather on my face. But tastes in brush size vary. When I first resumed traditional wetshaving, I bought brushes of every size, including a Rooney Style 3, Size 3. But now the smaller brush sizes, provided they have adequate lather capacity, seem ideal.
