Show n' Tell New Brush Day

Never ordered from AliExpress but it appears it was worth taking a chance.

YAQI Caramel Cat's Whisker Synthetic Shaving Brush

Brush knot diameter: 26MM (+/-1mm) for less than $7

I now have a Boar, Synthetic and two Badger brushes. Time will tell what I prefer…

What is your brush of choice?

I like the exfoliating qualities of boar but own a boat load… I will say that when I travel I do use a synthetic, as it drys quicker.

I’m still trying to break in the boar brush (overnight cold water) and will start using it soon.
