    • Brush: Maggard 24mm 2 Band Badger
    • Razor: Gillette Tech (Z-4)
    • Blade: Bolzano Superinox (Germany) (2)
    • Lather: Australian Private Reserve - Velours Noir - Soap
    • Post Shave: Chicago Grooming Co. - Frankie & Myrna - Aftershave
    • Post Shave: Goodfellow & Co. - Face Lotion - Kelp & Sea Mineral

    I finished off my allMan balm (although I probably have a backup somewhere) which freed up the old Mammoth bottle with a pump. Goodfellow Face Lotion (a Target exclusive) has been treating me really well lately, so I transferred some into the pump bottle.

    The lotion is very thick (similar to Declaration Grooming Liniment (but not as greasy)). I had trouble priming the pump, but now that it’s primed I don’t think I’ll have any problems.

    The APR soap base has always treated me well. I just load the dickens out of it and work it until it’s not too puffy. I bet if I loaded a little drier it would be easier to work with.
