    Thursday's Cold Water Shave

    Cold Water Rinse
    Palmolive Shave Cream
    Jayaruh #439 Synthetic
    PAA Starling Safety Bar
    Personna GEM SS PTFE
    CWR
    Florida Water
    The Palmolive Shave Cream lathered well with the Jayaruh #439 Synthetic brush. Two passes and touch ups with the PAA Starling razor with safety bar and a Personna GEM SS PTFE Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Florida Water. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Sometime this weekend I'm going to break out the Enders and the new old stock blades I found for it. My curiosity has been looking forward to this one for years, but I'm fully prepared to be disappointed.

    DE SOTD, June 1st 2023

    Razor : Yaqi Slope slant torsion type, 316 SS- Mfg 2023>, mild to tame mid range depending on blade used, great machining and finish QC for my shaving needs. It could be a daily driver for myself and others. I use a Kai SS extra wide for a little more blade feel to make it a tame mid range for aggression and very efficient IMO. Had a excellent shave this morning.
    Blade : Kai SS extra wide, sharp and smooth with excellent longevity. Top tier blade for myself.
    Soap : Yaqi Musketeer rapier, Very nice scented soap similar to (Aramis) with excellent lather qualities. Yaqi Commissioned Master soap creations S.A to bring forward Yaqi line of soaps and fragrances. Very nice fragrance for myself to indulge in.
    Brush : Yaqi " Moka express" 24mm synthetic, excellent lather generator, luxury cloud like soft tips, gentle splay scrubber + excellent lather painter.
    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 splash + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
    Results : 1-10 dial - Copy (2)3 template 9.5.jpg or CCS,DFS,BBs + no irritation + 2 blemish weepers=[​IMG] excellent shave with my Yaqi Slope slant with a Kai SS extra wide.
