    Thursday's Cold Water Shave

    Cold Water Rinse
    Braymore Farm Goat Milk Sandalwood Soap
    Jayaruh #437
    Schick M Adjustable
    Supply Black Label Blade
    CWR
    Pinaud Citrus Musk Cologne

    The Braymore Farm Goat Milk Sandalwood Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #437 Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Schick M Adjustable Razor and a Supply Black Label Blade 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...

    Razor : Yaqi 2nd Generation Mellon head 316SSP with a Yaqi Chippendale 316 SSP handle- Mfg 2023>, mid range>. Excellent machining and finish QC. With the Chippendale handle it is a nice razor to use with a little blade feel. I used a fresh blade this morning and received a stellar close comfortable shave. This razor is going to be used more in my large rotation as my technique has matured over the years.
    Blade : Gillette 7oClock Permasharp(1) sharp and smooth with reasonable longevity.
    Soap : Razorock Lavender, a nice masculine scented soap of lavender with excellent lather qualities. 3rd tub but has been discontinued.
    Brush : Yaqi "Chianti's" 24mm synthetic. Excellent lather generator, heavenly cloud like soft tips, gentle splay scrubber + excellent 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 : Razorock King Louis Lavender with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
    Results : Dial 10 stellar.jpg CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers=[​IMG] Had a stellar close comfortable shave this morning with my with my Yaqi Mellon razor 316SSP with a fresh 7oClock Permasharp blade.
