    Razor: Rockwell 6S – #3
    Blade: Gillette Bleue Extra
    Brush: Brad Sears Archduke 26/50 2-Band Manchurian
    Soap: Macduffs Soap Co: American Vintage (V4 base). another new soap
    Post: CeraVe moisturising lotion..

    Mmm, American Vintage, what a lovely scent, it strangely made me reminisce about the 1963 ES335 that I had as a teen. The performance of this soap is top tier, so it's a massive thumbs up from me. Colour me happy!

    DE SOTD, Saturday, November 26th 2022.

    Razor : Razorock Wunderbar slant with a MMOC modified handle (2 7/8"Long), Mfg 2017- 2022, upper mid range, well designed and excellent machining QC and nice polished finish for 316 SS, light touch will reward a fellow with a stellar shave. Razor is coming out with their Super Slant that is similar to the Wunderbar slant but perfected a little more.
    Blade : Astra SP (1) sharp & smooth with great longevity. Experimenting with 2 blades stacked.
    Soap : Yaqi "Musketeer rapier"- nice musk scent(Aramis?) with excellent lather qualities. Yaqi commissioned Master soap creators S.A to make a soap & fragrance line of products.
    Brush : Yaqi "ever helpful" 22 mm 2band badger. Excellent lather generator, firm soft pillow like tips, excellent splay scrubber + great painter. This brush is designed for fellows who like a nice face scrub, short loft with HD knot producers a excellent enjoyable face scrubber.
    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 : Witch hazel beard cleanse & Yaqi Musketeer Rapier slash + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
    Results :CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers=[​IMG] excellent shave with my RR Wunderbar slant with 2X Astra SP blades. Very enjoyable shave this morning.

    My ‘neglected blade’ trials continue. Love the Feather…it was so smooth in this Canadian Rocket. The Personna Red I just finished with gets a solid ‘meh’ and is back into the drawer.
    Have a great night all!

    Shaving recipe for today.

    Prep: Warm shower:/ Nivea Men Power Shower Gel.

    Pre:
    Cold wet flannel to my face.
    Palmolive Naturals Olive & Milk Bar Soap.
    Brush: Yaqi 26mm Rainbow Brown Synthetic. (Faux Horse)
    Bowl Lather.
    Bowl: Home Bargains Stainless Steel Side Bowl.
    Lather: Omega Eucalyptus Shaving Cream.
    Frankenrazor: Yaqi DOC Head / Schmidt R10 Handle.
    Blade: Lancet Super Platinum. (D2)

    Post:
    Cold water face wash with brush squeezing's, Cold Water Face Rinse. /Alum Rub. /Cold Water Rinse. / Homemade (~Autumn/Winter mix~) peppermint lavender, eucalyptus, + Tea Tree essential Oils Mixed Together With 200ml of Care+Witch Hazel. /Nivea Men Replenishing PSB. /Milton Lloyd Essentials No9 EdP.

    A relaxing Sunday morning shave.

    It's been a while since i last used the Omega shaving cream and forgot how much easy it is to create a slick protective lather, with a good kick from the Eucalyptus oil to give my ageing face sensors a vibrant winter morning wakeup call!
    The Lancet Super Platinum continues to impress me with its smooth efficiency.

    A comfortable 2 pass + pick-ups silky smooth shave with no errors to report. Finishing the shave off with a few small squirts of Milton Lloyd Essentials No9 EdP to the pulse points.

    My face is feeling cool, smooth & smelling divine. ;)

    Stay Safe and enjoy your Sunday Ladies & Gentlemen. :cool:

    Sunday morning’s Grand Freeze:

    L’Oréal Men Expert Facial Wash
    Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
    Junjie/Astra Green day 5
    MSC Peppermint Latte SS
    Prep ASB
    MSC Peppermint Latte AS Splash

    Wow, my face is absolutely FROZEN from this intense menthol bombardment but it feels so good. My brother Fernando’s Peppermint Latte soap and aftershave have such a beautiful espresso coffee/peppermint scent as well as a tremendous amount of menthol. The soap’s tallow formula gives such awesome lather that’s so thick, rich, as well as SUPER SLICK, the menthol sensation hits like a sledgehammer, and the postshave feeling is so comfortable. Needless to say the Prep is so soothing and moisturizing while the Peppermint Latte aftershave is witch hazel based so there’s never any burning or stinging from it, the menthol kick it gives is off the charts, and it’s got the same lovely scent as the soap. Three passes with the cheap little Junjie/Astra Green combo gave me a brilliant BBS shave that was so much fun!

    Enjoy your Sunday - be well and safe![​IMG]

    Cella After Shave Balm

    The b-pure Shave Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #1 Badger brush. Two passes and touch ups with the 1902 Kampfe Brothers/Star LC and the Star Wedge Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Cella After Shave Balm. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
