Results/Comments:  A smooth relaxing shave with the 61. Easy to handle and mild feeling but closer than it seems.  The Ethos soap is just amazing.  A small almond’s worth scooped out, and rich thick super luxurious lather for days.  It sure made the the most of the entire 26mm’s of High Mt. White in the Elite Razor brush.  The “post-shave feel” of the Ethos soap is also exceptional.  It feels like I’ve applied balm, ‘though I didn’t.  So luxurious you feel like you’ve splurged on something unusually self-indulgent. (Sort of like when you’re on vacation and so you spring for an amazing meal at a restaurant that you wouldn’t ordinarily go to, and for dessert you order the chocolate mousse with whipped cream and shaved dark chocolate on top [or whatever your particular choice might be]).  The Ethos AS splash is similarly rich and incredibly effective, making my face feel smooth, tight, and powdery. It makes an ordinary shave feel like a mini-vacation.  A nice mini-reprieve during this vacation-less pandemic time warp.

God Bless All those Who Serve and All Those Who Served.

Happy Shaves to All.

The Amaretto scent of Moon Soaps makes me want to taste the lather! I also have Havana, amazing boutique shaving croaps and their balm is premium too!

Honestly he does, I saw it turned on it’s side earlier in the week and I was like wow is that nice.  When I flip the page back to take that third look it’s usually a wrap for me.  What makes that brush uniquely special is it can’t be purchased. I would be showing it off like a new babe at the beach too. I’m jealous of all you people who have a Graydog brush, just putting that out there...
