DE SOTD, Jan 1st 2022- the start of the New Year, I'm going to try and stay optimistic this year more if possible.
Razor: American Gillette super speed Rocket X1- Mfg 1952 1st qtr, very nice mild razor, I like using the Kai SS blade in this razor because it slightly wider and gives a little blade feel and works well. Well built and brings back memories of a different simpler time.
Blade: Kai SS(9) excellent blade, sharp and smooth with excellent longevity, 9/1000 thousands inch wider than a standard Astra SP. Great for my mild razors IMO.
Soap: Razorock Irish country side- different mild freshness scent + excellent lather qualities.
Brush: Yaqi 24mm high mountain silver tip, excellent lather generator, pillow like soft tips, nice scrub, great painter.
Pre shave: Brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser + a dollop of clear aloe Vera gel on the cleaned beard area.
Prep: Cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pickups.
Post shave: Pinaud Clubman with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion + scentless.
Results: CCS,D
FS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers =
