    Hendrick's Witch Hazel
    Pinaud Clubman AS

    The Williams Mug Shaving Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #41 two-band badger brush. Two passes and touch ups with the 1914 Gillette Pocket Edition and a Pro 500 Super Platinum Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Hendrick's Witch Hazel and then Pinaud Clubman After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    DE SOTD, December 2 2023

    Razor : Gillette British HD Rocket Super speed- Mfg 1950's, milder range. Well built and designed super speed and gives a decent shave. Great milder razor for those who are in a hurry to get out the door to go to work. Had a close comfortable shave this morning.
    Blade : Polsilver SI(5) sharp and smooth with excellent longevity.
    Soap : Ogallala Bayrum with sandalwood, nice Bayrum with some clove with great lather qualities.
    Brush : Yaqi "Mountain lake" 24mm 2band badger. Excellent lather generator, pillow like soft tips, nice splay scrubber + great lather painter.
    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 + Ogallala Bayrum and Sandalwood + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
    Results : [​IMG] or CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers=[​IMG] Had a close comfortable shave this morning with my Gillette British variant HD Rocket with a Polsilver.
