    Coate’s Almond Cream today. 10 seconds to load the John’s Brushes Silvertip brush. Easy, thick, slick, lather. Perma-Sharp Super in the Maggard V2 Open Comb. Excellent smooth, close, shave. I finished with Stirling Barbershop aftershave.

    Williams Wednesday's Shave
    zcws.jpg

    Cold Water Wash
    Williams Mug Shaving Soap
    Jayaruh #330
    Bunny V3 Injector
    Schick Proline B20
    CWR
    Pinaud Vanilla

    My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Williams Mug Shaving Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #330 brush. I only did one pass and touch ups with the Bunny V3 Injector Razor with a Schick Proline B20 blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Pinaud Vanilla AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    My first use of a Zenith brush and i'm pretty impressed, it doesn't splay as much as the Semogues I own but unfortunately it does hog the lather like they did initially.
    I know this only a temporary inconvenience but whether it'll topple either of my Omegas remains to be seen.
    Happy Shaving one and all.

    Hey there, say there!

    My Wednesday SOTD:

    L’Oreal Men Expert Facial Wash
    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Goodfella/Derby day 3
    Krampert’s Frostbite SS
    Prep ASB
    Krampert’s Frostbite AS Splash

    What a cracking good shave this was - lots of chilliness from the Frostbite soap, matching aftershave, and the Prep.

    Cheers!

    Parker SRX
    Lord Super Stainless (1)
    30DC LE
    SC Love
    Alum, Thayers WH, USB, Captain's Choice Bay Rum & Aramis


    For the fifth shave of my focus, I performed two passes and some touch-ups with the Parker SRX for a nice shave. The Lord blade felt a bit less smooth than the Rapira, but it was fine on its first outing. Everything else fell into place per the SOP.

    Have a great Wednesday!

    Great shave buddy!

    Somehow I find that bay rum and Aramis pair very well!
