Menthol Monday's Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Virgilio Valobra Shaving Soap
Bethlehem Olive Wood Silvertip
Gillette Sheraton
Gillette Silver Blue
CWR
Dickenson's Witch Hazel
Osage Rub

The Virgilio Valobra Shaving Soap lathered well with the Bethlehem Olive Wood Silvertip Badger. Two passes and touch ups with the Gillette Sheraton Razor and a Gillette Silver Blue Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Dickenson's Witch Hazel and Osage Rub. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

ASRazor shave, MMMonday, March 25th 2024

Razor : Gem Push button, Mfg 1958-65, tame mid range. A very nice razor to use if in good working order. There seem to be a craze back years ago for push button transmissions in cars, it seems that craze has returned 60 + years, because mostly all new cars come with push button starts + even some transmissions(History repeats its self once again). Had a close comfortable shave this morning.
Blade : Gem Personna SS PTFE (2) very sharp, excellent longevity, smooths out nicely. predictable + safest blade to handle.
Soap : Speick stick, nice mild spicy scented with excellent lather qualities. Top tier soap in my den IMO.
Brush : Yaqi " Cola" 22 mm synthetic. Excellent lather generator, cloud like soft tips, nice splay scrubber + excellent lather painter. Nice handle to hold onto + not a lather hog either. Great brush for very little soap needed to generate nice lather.
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 : Ach Brito Lavanda with with hazel+ a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
Results : or CCS,DFS,BBs + no irritation + no weepers= Had a close comfortable shave this morning with my Gem Push button razor with a coated Gem blade.

Have some great shaves!
