Williams Wednesday's Shave Cold Water Rinse Williams Mug Shaving Soap Jayaruh #18 Silvertip RazoRock Black Hawk Feather Professional CWR PSC Caffeinated AS My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Williams Mug Shaving Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #18 Silvertip brush. I did two passes with the RazoRock Black Hawk razor with a Feather Professional blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with PSC Caffeinated AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Midweek on Wednesday: Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster Super Speed/Rapira day 3 Brion Sensitive SC Prep ASB Reef Point Fougere Santal AS Splash This Brion Sensitive cream is from Serbia and I received it a few weeks back along with some other nice stuff. I know a few guys who claim it’s a terrible latherer but I disagree. It takes a bit more effort to work up a good, rich lather but once you get it going it’s excellent. The scent is really nice, there’s a mild menthol sensation, and it’s got very good soothing. The Prep is so wonderful as an aftershave balm and the Fougere Santal aftershave from Reef Point was a gift from my darling wife - does it ever smell beautiful. What a cracking good shave this was!

Weber DLC razor Treet King blade Burma Shave boar brush Windsor Shave Stick turned into puck w/2 drops M-Bomb Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe Old Spice Fresh Lime A/S Picked a whole bunch of stuff entirely unrelated to each other. The Treet King blade is one I've used before but a long time ago. Thought it was ok then and still do. One of the those blades that just work, not great but more than ok. The Windsor Shave Stick has been a problem for me. Can't get it to work as a stick at all. Grated it into a bowl and it worked better. Adding the M-Bomb helped it work very well and I'm finally happy with it. Just needed some more glycerin I think. The Old Spice Lime smells wonderful to me and my bride. That's a good thing. So, a fine shave was had. Now go enjoy your day folks.
