    Permasharp Super (4).
    Cella AS Lotion.

    9th shave with the Zeppelin, using the 0.5 mm gap:
    Invariably a comfortable shave with DFS+ result.
    A bigger gap would give an even better result with less effort, I think ....

    Cold Water Wash

    Jayaruh #340
    TNNSER by @twhite
    GEM Blue Star SE
    CWR
    Osage Rub

    My prep was just a cold water rinse. The TSD Cool Lime Shaving Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #340 badger brush. I did two passes with the TNNSER razor with a GEM Blue Star SE blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Osage Rub. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Coate’s Lavender Cream today. 20 seconds to load the John’s Brushes Silvertip brush. Easy, thick, slick, lather. ASCO Red Box Super Stainless still in the Gillette Red Tip Super Speed. Excellent smooth, close, shave. I finished with Bulgari Blu aftershave.

    Thanks, it has been a fun focus. Makes you organize and list all your products and then use them. My hope is to find a few that I can PIF or sell and try to reduce my inventory some.

    8D83723C-682D-42AF-85F7-A0447D673D1E.jpeg My Menthol Monday outing South African style:

    Stirling Mentholated Pre-Shave Soap
    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Goodfella/Rapira day 4
    Bundubeard Kameelperd’s Kick SS
    Prep ASB
    B&M Arctique AS Splash
    Lagerfeld Classic EdT

    Smoother than this it couldn’t get - heck, after two passes I was BBS. Guys, very seriously - this Kameelperd soap is 250 grams of intense menthol freeze with a beautiful coffee scent, rich meringue lather, and fabulous skincare. In terms of menthol power it’s EXACTLY the same as all the Stirling Glacials which really surprised and impressed me. The Prep balm delivered very well on the soothing, not to mention how the Arctique gave me its own special lethal freeze that I love so much!

    Have a great week!
