    Preshave: Hot shower
    Brush: Perfecto Badger
    Soap: Stirling Soap - Bay Rum
    Razor: Razorock Game Changer .68
    Blade: Bolzano Superinox
    Post shave: Gillette Gel

    First shave with the newly-purchased Game Changer. The drill for placing the blade is quite different from other razors (a bit of a challenge, to be honest) but I'll get used to it. Sweet shave with an obviously excellent razor and a blade I like.

    Friday Shave

    Lather: Catie's Bubbles Le Nude soap (fragrance-free)
    Brush: Certifyd
    Razor: Henson AL13 V2 +
    Blade: Personna Platinum
    Post: witch hazel and aloe

    I found this tub of Catie's Bubbles soap in the back of my cabinet. It has been a long time since I used it, and it was pleasant to make a good thick lather with it. A good soap.

    The Personna Platinum blade gave a good shave, but I had some irritation from it. It feels more aggressive to me than the Wizamet blades I have been using. I am not sure what I will use for my next shave.

    A new shave set up to start the weekend...Another smooth efficient performance from the with the Merkur 39C slant / Ninja Stainless duo.

    The Lider Turkish boar brush i soaked in tepid water for 5 minutes, after a quick squeeze to release the excessive water it building up a wonderful lather on both my face & head- adding water to the tips of the brush until i got the consistency of which I like.

    Supply SE Saturday's Cold Water Shave

    Cold Water Rinse
    Cella Crema da Barba
    Semogue Owners Club
    Supply SE Injector
    Supply Black Label Blade
    CWR
    Humphrey's Witch Hazel

    The Cella Crema da Barba lathered well with the Semogue Owners Club boar brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Supply SE Injector Razor and the Supply Black Label 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...
