Williams Wednesday's Shave


Cold Water Rinse
Williams Mug Shave Soap
Jayaruh #313
Gem Heavy Flat Top
CVS CS SE
CWR
Aqua Velva Musk

My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Williams Mug Shave Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #313 Badger Brush. I did two passes and a cleanup with the Gem Heavy Flat Top razor with a CVS CS SE blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Aqua Velva Musk AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

How cool is that Perry. Outstanding!

Thank you, Doug! That means a lot!

I don't think I use, "Outstanding" very often.

Wednesday morning:

Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
Super Speed/7 AM day 4
Soap Smooth Frozen Cranberry SS
Prep ASB
Aqua Velva Sport AS Splash

It’s -11 Celsius with the wind chill factor but because I didn’t use anything mentholated yesterday I decided to make up for it today and wowwwww, is this Frozen Cranberry soap ever cold. The scent is exactly what it implies - cranberry and sangria in a nice, tropical way, it lathers like a madman, and it lays a hell of a freeze on you along with a very good postshave feeling. I enjoyed the massage with the Prep so much, and the Aqua Velva Sport is a cracking good aftershave - now I really love its scent. Three passes gave me that brilliant dolphin smooth finish!

Half Italy is under water and here the sun is blinding me...
There is no justice!

This morning I opted for the rose: it's like the diamonds. It is forever.

However, evidently SE's are not for me!
Today I used the Pal, gifted by a friend, with a blade used only once: it 'pulled'! And these Personna are very sharp.
Why does my skin refuse such a beautiful and efficient tonsorial instrument?
I had to continue with an DE and that's not what I wanted.
I remember that even Schick, forty years ago, gave me similar problems ...

I don't ask for much: world peace, an enormous pension and being able to use my SE: am I expecting too much?
