8 July 2024

2nd Week of July Setup
Pre-Shave: Face brush-washed with VdH Unscented Luxury soap
Razor: Gillette Slim, setting 7
Blade: Tatra Platinum, shave 6
Soap: RazoRock Essential Oil of Lime
Brush: RazoRock Snowman synthetic
Post-Shave: Gabel's Lime Menthol ASL

The Tatra blade continues to perform well on extended duty. Shaved with the Slim on setting 7, which is the most I've ever opened it up, and had no problems. BBS for two days in a row!

If I had to choose but one of the soaps and ASLs I have on hand, this is likely the combo I'd go with. Delightful in every way!

 

Thank you Gus!

Tabac After Shave

The Tabac Shave Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #454 Two-band Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Schick 66 G-4 Injector razor and the Personna Injector Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Tabac After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

I was unaware of Gillette making an aluminum DE in the 70's.
Nice setup.
