Aug 27, 2022 - AA: MA-RH-MM - Almond Leather - Day 27

Prep: Warm Water Wash
Prep: Klar - Activated Charcoal - Face Soap
Brush: Zenith Cobalt Blue 28mm Boar Knot (505BC SE)
Razor: GEM Open Comb Micromatic (2nd Gen.)
Blade: Personna GEM PTFE (27)
Lather: House of Mammoth - Almond Leather - Soap
Post Shave: House of Mammoth - Almond Leather - Aftershave

Instead of measuring load times for the soap, I'm getting to the point where I can tell by the look and texture of the proto-lather whether I'll have enough for the shave. I am still surprised by how soft this knot has become and how well it creates lather. This blade feels extremely rough, but somehow it's still performing at its best, giving efficiently close, albeit uncomfortable, shaves.
