Shaving recipe for today.

Prep: Warm shower:/Lynx Africa Body Wash.

Pre:
Cold wet flannel to my face.
Chantry Lavender Goat's Milk Bar Soap.
Brush: Anbbas 24mm Synthetic.
Face Lather.
Lather: HWF Lanolin Shaving Soap (No.2) with Tea Tree & Lavender essential oils.

Post:
Cold water face wash with brush squeezing's, Cold Water Face Rinse./ Homemade (~Spring/Summer mix~) Lemon, Eucalyptus, Tea Tree, Essential Oils.3 Menthol Crystals Mixed Together With 200ml of Care+Witch Hazel./Brut ASL + Splash-On Lotion/ Nivea Men Fresh Moisturising Gel./Milton Lloyd America Night EdT.

Relaxing Sunday morning shave,

Everything in the shave set up this morning worked together wonderfully.

The Featherweight is easy to hold the shaving angle manoeuvrable, and well balanced considering it's a lot lighter than my Gem Micromatic OC, and other SE razors, but the weight doesn't hinder the shaving performance in any shape or form....It's all down to good technique & shaving confidence.

Another enjoyable 2 pass + pick ups close comfortable shave with no errors to report.

Finishing to the shave off with a few small squirts of Milton Lloyd America Night EdT to the chest & pulse points.

My face is feeling super smooth & smelling divine.

Stay safe, and enjoy your Sunday ladies & gentlemen.

 

Lather Catcher Sunday's Shave


Cold Water Rinse
Williams Mug Shaving Soap
Jayaruh #313 Badger
1907 Gem Jr. Lather Catcher
Personna GEM SS PTFE
CWR
Pinaud Citrus Musk Cologne

The Williams Mug Shaving Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #313 Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the 1907 Gem Jr. Lather Catcher Razor with a Personna GEM SS PTFE Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Pinaud Citrus Musk Cologne. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Sunday morning:

L’Oréal Men Expert Facial Wash
Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Wilkinson Sword/Shark day 5
Compass Ice Energy SC
Prep ASB
Aqua Velva Sport AS Splash

This Compass Ice Energy is a very nice Bulgarian cream which is sold also in Russia, Ukraine, and other countries such as Kazakhstan, Georgia, Armenia, Moldova, and Romania. The cream is a light blue colour and it has a very pleasant scent, the lather becomes thick, rich, very slick, protective, and cushiony, there’s a bit of a menthol sensation, and the skincare is excellent. The Prep’s medicinal/clovey scent to me is so nice, and its moisturizing, soothing, and cooling effect are so wonderful, while the Aqua Velva Sport aftershave (to me) smells so nice and it’s loaded with menthol. Three passes gave me a perfect BBS shave which I enjoyed immensely!

Have a good Sunday - be well and safe!

Hi Friends,

Here is my Sunday Shave (12.06.2022)


Razor: Rockwell 6S (Plate 3) // Blade: Gillette Wilkinson India // Soap: PAA Cavendish (Sample) // Brush: PAA Green Ray // Aftershave: PAA Cavendish (Sample)

Ohhhh maaaaaaaan…PAA Cavendish…i is LOVE!!!

What a fantastic scent this is. Soap as well as the AS. I am stunned…the tobacco on the photo is a Cherry / Vanilla one which smells almost identical to the soap. Lovely!!!

The Rockwell had no problems with the whiskers. 3 joyful passes and i was BBS.

The Aftershave had a good burn for just the blink of an eye, then a heavy alcoholic note came up on front and then it changed into a heavenly scent.

I need to buy the Set.

I wish all of you a very nice Sunday.

Have a great time, enjoy your shaves and stay safe and healthy.

Greetings
Thorsten

 

I had the Rte 66 Cavendish. Liked it a lot.

 

The Vanilla Sandalwood looks "chocolate-y".

 

Sunday Schick shave, June 25th 2022

Razor : Schick injector i2 with hydro magic- Mfg 1954-57, excellent tame mid range, well designed and easy to clean. One of my favourite Schick injectors but it still needs a light touch for those carefree shaves we all like.
Blade : Personna SS PTFE (4) very sharp, great longevity, smooths out nicely + predictable.
Soap : Yaqi Musketeer rapier, excellent unique scent with excellent lather qualities. Designed for Yaqi by Master Soup creation S.A.
Brush : Yaqi Atlantis 24mm synthetic, excellent lather generator, cloud like soft tips, nice scrubber + great lather painter. Not sure how they got all that stuff in the handle but I like the brush a lot.
Pre shave : (Dedicated Cashmere synthetic)Brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser with a dollop of clear Aloe Vera on the cleaned beard area.
Prep : Cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pickups. WTG + ATG + pickups.
Post shave : Yaqi Musketeer rapier with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
Results :CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers= Excellent shave with my Schick i2 injector with a Personna coated blade + still recuperating from a scrape on my chin.

Have some great shaves!

 

Great pic Gary. Looks like an awesome shave.
