    Ultra mild 1982 British Aluminum Tech, silky smooth lather from Klar Razier Seifen, applied by a refurbished brush, then Trumpers Skin Food. A great start to a cold, rainy Tuesday. IMG_20200609_063351_kindlephoto-17556431.jpg

    Razor: Gillette old type with a tech handle- Mfg 1920's- this razor reminds me to be grateful for what I have because the previous owner had not much looking at the handle that it came with in his shaving gear.
    Blade: Gillette 7oClock SP black(3) Great DE blade, sharp & smooth but longevity might be shorter than some blades.
    Soap: TOBS Sandal wood - Great scent with reasonable lather qualities.
    Brush: Razorock 24 mm Plissoft- I like using this synthetic still, great brush all the way around in scrub,painting & display. It seems to be holding up well after 3 1/2 years of use also.
    Preshave: Brush wash my whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser + a small dollop of Aloe Vera gel on beard area.
    Prep: cold water rinse after each pass of 3 + pick ups.
    Post shave: Proraso red Sandal wood with witch Hazel + a small dollop of Nivea balm.
    Results: CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers = [​IMG] great shave with my Gillette old type & Gillette 7oClock.
