  • Brush: Maggard 24mm 2 Band Badger
  • Razor: Gillette Slim Adjustable (I-2)
  • Blade: Bolzano Superinox (Germany) (3)
  • Lather: Stirling Soap Co. - Gin & Tonic - Soap
  • Post Shave: Old Spice - Hawkridge - Aftershave
  • Post Shave: Harry's - Aftershave Balm

Is Stirling so good because it's excellent soap, or is it so good because I use it frequently and know exactly how to lather it? Probably the first thing.

I consider Stirling as a dependable option. I have a bunch of tubs of it that I know I will never finish nor sell.

It's truly amazing how Stirling just keeps standing the test of time ๐Ÿ˜
