Williams Wednesday's Shave Cold Water Rinse Williams Mug Shaving Soap Jayaruh #144 Enders Speed Razor Enders Speed Blade CWR Florida Water My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Williams Mug Shaving Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #144 Brush. I did two passes with the Enders Speed Razor with an Enders Speed Blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Florida Water. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Salaam Aleikum wa Rahmat Allah al barakatu! (Peace be upon you and the mercy and blessing of God!) A barbershop-type shave with a Syrian twist: Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster Super Speed/Wilkinson day 4 Hamol SC Prep ASB Booster Polar Ice AS Splash This Hamol cream from Syria is absolutely brilliant - its scent (I finally figured it out!) is the exact same as the North American Williams soap, a little dab on both cheeks gives an insanely thick, rich lather, and it gives a small menthol sensation - like a gentle cool breeze on your face and wonderful moisturizing as well as soothing skincare. Did it ever feel great to use the Prep and the Booster Polar Ice aftershave when I was done. Two passes did a perfect job of ridding me of that rough stubble and left me with a gorgeous BBS face!

2019-08-28, Wednesday Started the blade test: the winner will flank the Kai's for the rest of my life. Will be changing razors and soaps to get closer to real daily use. Tested also the Petrichor: omygosh! Wonder hoe B&M ever thought to 'that' smell! But... if they still sell it it means they know what they are doing!
