    They did a better job of editing that video than I could have done.

    The brush and razor look like they were meant for each other, the spice bomb is just the icing on the cake.

    what a great video, I can see you have no choice but to keep him.

    Gemini Shave Month (Twin shaves-same set up two days in a row).

    Rating: 5 / 5

    Razor: Razor Retro Shavette
    Blade: Univinlions
    Brush: Jack Skully
    Lather: Santa Fe Soap Ranch Redwood Vetiver
    Aftershave: Aqua Velva Musk
    Additional Care:
    Barbero Alum Block
    Thayer's Witch Hazel - Aloe Vera
    Stirling Unscented Glacial Balm
    Hope you all are having a wonderful morning. Today’s shave meets this month’s theme for a basic shave plus my self imposed theme of the Gemini.

    My first introduction to the Santa Fe Soap Ranch shaving soap was 6 years ago while visiting New Mexico for my niece’s wedding. I found it in a farmer’s market. My first soap was the Tobacco Caramel. The current soap, the Redwood Vetiver is a soap with a subtle Vetiver scent. It provides a nice, thick lather that offers a slick surface for the blade to pass over. This is especially appreciated when using a shavette. This soap is an economical hard soap which I grated into a mug. A little water to bloom while in the shower set up the ease of loading.

    The Razor Retro shavette, a feather AC type razor, found on Aliexpress, delivered a clean and comfortable three pass shave without any incident. The alum block pass over confirmation of no heat is an added bonus.

    The WH, AV M and SGB put a nice finishing touch on a great shave. Feeling and smelling great to get on with my day. Have a fabulous Friday gentlemen.

    Apologies to all! We lost power for two days in the wake of some powerful thunderstorms. I’ll be posting my shave later!

    Great shave and photo Joe. Congrats on the soap. I have never had luck with shave soaps from the farmer's market or craft shows.
