Badger brushes don't come better than Silvertip and the handmade MUHLE Silvertip Chrome Shaving Brush is particularly fine example of the breed.

Silvertip is the finest grade of badgerhair readily available. Ultrasoft, and great for absorbing water, it provides the ultimate exfoliation to your skin whilst whipping up a rich lather like nothing else. Handmade by MUHLE's shaving experts, the MUHLE 091M89 Traditional Chrome Silvertip Badger Shaving Brush benefits from a heavyweight handle, adding to the feel of premium quality.

Soak the bristles in hot water for a minute, then use a dab of your favourite soap or cream and a bowl to whip up a rich lather. Apply the lather with your MUHLE brush in circular motions and shave - reapply lather before every pass. To keep in top condition, dry with the bristles pointing down.
