    Thursday's Cold Water Shave

    Cold Water Rinse
    Colgate Shaving Mug Soap
    Jayaruh #434 Synthetic
    English Ever-Ready
    Personna GEM SS PTFE
    CWR
    Granddad's Blend After Shave

    The Colgate Shaving Mug Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #434 Synthetic brush. Two passes and touch ups with the English Ever-Ready Razor and a Personna GEM SS PTFE Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Granddad's Blend After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Tolle Rasur mein lieber!

    Nach meiner Meinung ist diese Rooi Afrikaner Seife fabelhaft. Der Duft ist so angenehm, der Schaum ist so leicht anzuschlagen, und die Hautpflege ist ausgezeichnet. Sehr bequem und beruhigend.

    Razor : Yaqi TFC adjustable- Mfg 2021>, nice all range razor, this razor is based off the legendary Gibbs 1930's adjustable razor variants, Yaqi TFC takes standard Gillette blades where the Gibbs took their proprietary blades and is a joy to use. Excellent close shave this morning with no issues.
    Blade : Gillette Astra SP (3) sharp and smooth with great longevity.
    Soap : TOBS Sandalwood, very nice herbal sandal wood scent 5-6/10 strength with excellent lather qualities.
    Brush : Yaqi "Lucky dice" 26mm fan brown whiskers synthetic knot, excellent lather generator, heavenly luxury cloud like soft tips, gentle splay scrubber + excellent lather painter. Won this on there live sale many months ago and it is rare to see Yaqi fan knots so it must of been a test specimen and it is wonderful with the big handle, glad I lucked out winning it.
    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 : witch hazel beard cleanse of residual soap + Ogallala Bayrum & sandal wood+ a dollop of Geo F Trumper sandal wood skin food.
    Results : 1-10 dial - Copy (2)2 template 10.1.jpg or CCS,DFS,BBs + no irritation + no weepers=[​IMG] excellent shave with my Yaqi TFC adjustable with a Astra SP blade.
