Friday's Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Proraso Red Sandalwood
Jayaruh #371 Badger
Gillette Red and Black OT by Tom
Astra SP
CWR
Humphrey's Witch Hazel

The Proraso Red Sandalwood Shaving Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #371 Badger brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Gillette Red and Black OT by Tom and the Astra SP Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Humphrey's Witch Hazel. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Razor : Yaqi Chrome Excalibur with a Yaqi 316 SS polished handle- Mfg 2021>, tame mid range, interesting clamping design, fairly accurate blade alignment on this this model, affordable + I always get a close enjoyable shave with the Yaqi Excalibur razor head.
Blade : Schick p30 AC Proline 50mm, sharp & smooth + reasonable longevity for any AC blade I have used.
Soap : Tabac, different mild flowery clean scent with excellent lather qualities. Excellent post shave feel with this soap also.
Brush : Yaqi "Ever helpful" 22 mm 2 band badger, excellent lather generator, firm pillow soft tips, excellent scrubber, good lather painter. This brush was designed for those fellow who love the scrub, shorter loft + dense packed with soft tips = best scrub brush in my harem of different brushes. It is just a different face feel that is not like my boar brushes, I bought it on sale and still enjoy it once in a while and glade I purchased it.
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 + ATG + pickups.
Post shave : Pinaud Clubman with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
Results :CCS,DFS,BBs + no irritation + 1 blemish weeper= Excellent shave with my Yaqi Excalibur with a Schick AC proline blade. Very enjoyable shave this morning!

Fine L'Orange Noir~~Simpson Harvard 4~~Heljestrand MK32~~Terre d'Hermès Parfum
Haven't shaved with a true straight razor in a while. It was somewhat awkward---
especially on the chin, but I did manage to remove stubble and leave the epidermis intact.
The Fine soap, once again, proved itself a worthy challenger to the best of the best soaps.
Love the scent and it pairs wonderfully with the Terre d'Hermès parfum.​

Well, here we go with Saturday's edition of "Throwback Thursday":

prep-Clubman Pinaud Beard&Bodywash(in shower)
shave-Clunman Pinaud Classic Barber Shave Cream*
razor-Gillette Sensor Deuce Pivot DisposeABLE
A.S.-Clubman Pinaud 12.5 oz.**

*brushless shaving cream in a tub(16 oz).One of the newer items from a company that began in 1830, when Doc Pinaud was 20 years old. Course most Clubman Pinaud products have "1810" on them, honoring his birth.

**-His aftershaves have been around much longer than the brushless cream.

nice touch Gary, as Pinaud was a Frenchman himself.
