DE SOTD, Saturday, July 27th 2024

Razor : Gillette Fatboy E4. Mfg 1959 4th qtr, any range of aggression. I like using this razor other than the blade tab overhang that can nick a person every once in a while. This razor is well built to last generations and I truly enjoy using it on my birthday year. Bought this razor at a antique store for a decent price($20 Can) & I finally have my birth year razor + I think my father owned also a slim or Fatboy. Had a close comfortable stellar shave this morning.
Blade : Personna Red(2) sharp and smooth. Top tier blade IMO of 7 variants.
Soap : Razorock Irish Countryside, very unique scented soap with excellent lather qualities. Excellent soap in all matters.
Brush : Yaqi "barber pole" 2band badger, Excellent lather generator, luxury pillow like soft tips, very nice splay scrubber + excellent lather painter. Great handle for folks who like that and this 2band knot is 2nd to none in my collection.
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(7)+ ATG(7) + pickups(9 setting).
Post shave : Razorock Irish Countryside with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
Results : or CCS,DFS,BBs + no irritation + no weepers= Had a close comfortable stellar shave this morning with my Gillette Fatboy with a Personna red blade.


Have some great shaves!

Greetings,

The Cella extra extra Bio shaving cream provided a wonderful lather this vegan version is equally as good to it's tallow sibling and like the tallow version it's slick protective and doesn't dry out and leaving my mature rhino skin type feeling hydrated and smooth. The mild-light fresh & Citrusy ASL is very pleasing leaving a good post shave feel.

Finishing the shave off with a few small dollops of Bulldog Original Moisturiser.

My face is feeling super smooth & smelling divine.

Keep safe and enjoy your Sunday ladies & gentlemen.

 

Gus.

Lather Catcher Sunday's Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Colgate Shaving Mug Soap
B-3 Red and Black Badger
1902 Kampfe Brothers/Star LC
Star Wedge
CWR
Clubman Special Reserve After Shave

The Colgate Shaving Mug Soap lathered well with the B-3 Red and Black Badger Brush by Tom. Two passes and touch ups with the 1902 Kampfe Brothers/Star Lather Catcher and the Star Wedge blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Clubman Special Reserve After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
