    Friday morning’s Grand Freeze:

    L’Oréal Men Expert Facial Wash
    Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
    Super Speed/Astra Green day 5
    Stirling Glacial Spearmint SS
    Stirling Glacial Spearmint ASB
    MSC Frosted Spearmint AS Spray
    Bleu de Chanel Deodorant Stick
    Bleu de Chanel EdP

    My bathroom was filled with the delightful scent of the Glacial Spearmint soap and my face was buried under tons of rich, creamy, super slick, mega frigid lather, and the postshave feeling was great. The Glacial Spearmint balm helped to continue the freeze, and it added so much extra moisturizing as well as soothing, while Fernando’s wonderful Frosted Spearmint aftershave smells as lovely as the Glacial Spearmint and it’s a menthol atom bomb. Last but not least the Bleu de Chanel’s gorgeous fragrance and I’m all set. Three passes gave me a helluva BBS shave that I enjoyed immensely!

    Have a good weekend - be well and stay safe![​IMG]

    Friday'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...

    SE SOTD, Friday, June 2nd 2023

    Razor : Yaqi SE Excalibur 50mm AC type with Yaqi Milano polished 316SS handle- Mfg 2021>, mild to tame mid range, simple clamping design, small head parts( I like to work over a wash cloth!) + affordable. This little head gives some of the best shaves for myself and like to use it regularly to enjoy it for daily shaving rotation. This is a daily shaver for myself! Had a close no issues shave this morning.
    Blade : Schick proline p30, 50mm (1)- sharp and smooth with reasonable longevity for a AC type blade IMO.
    Soap : Yaqi Musketeer Rapier, nice scented soap(Aramis?) + excellent lather qualities. Designed for Yaqi soap and fragrance product line by Master soap creations S.A.
    Brush : Yaqi "Viper" 24mm boar bristle, excellent lather generator, soft split end boar bristles, great splay scrubber + great lather painter. Nice brush to work the face and always enjoy the look of this brush handle with this knot.
    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)2 template 10.jpg or CCS,DFS,BBs + no irritation + no weepers=[​IMG] Had a excellent shave this morning with my Yaqi Excalibur 50mm razor with a Schick proline p30.

    Shaving Recipe for today.

    Prep: Warm shower:/ Dove Men+Care Clean Comfort Body + Face Wash.

    Pre:
    Cold wet flannel to my face & head.
    Pears Original Transparent Bar Soap.
    Brush: Yaqi Sagrada Familia 24mm Synthetic.
    Face & Head lather.
    Lather: Eco Warrior Bergamot and Lime shaving Bar.
    Razor: 1940's Thin Handle Gillette Flat Bottom Tech. (ENG) - Dorco Prime Platinum. (D1)
    Razor: Kanzy K100. (Head/Dome)- Dorco Prime Platinum. (D2.)

    Post:
    Cold water face & head wash with brush squeezing's, Cold Water Face & Head Rinse./Alum Rub. /Homemade (~Spring/Summer mix~) Lemon, Eucalyptus, Tea Tree, Essential Oils.3 Menthol Crystals Mixed Together With 200ml of Care+Witch Hazel./ Yelken Lemon Eau De Cologne./ Aloe Vera Gel.

    (Face & Head Shave)

    A new shave set up to start the weekend....

    Both the 40's Gillette Tech & Kanzy K100 paired up wonderfully with the Dorco Prime Platinum. I will be using both the Kanzy K100 & the Baili BD 191 for my head/dome shave throughout the month the curvature on the top cap & closed head design on both razors have the same head and are wonderful for head shaving giving extra protection of catching my ear lobes from the blade ends when shaving.

    Another enjoyable close comfortable face and head shave with no errors to report. Finishing the shave off with a few small dollops of Aloe Vera Gel.

    My face & precious swede are feeling cool smooth, & smelling divine. ;)

    Stay safe, and enjoy the start of the weekend ladies & gentlemen. :cool:

    Saturday morning:

    L’Oréal Men Expert Facial Wash
    Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
    Super Speed/Astra Green day 6
    Lyko SC (from India and so nice)
    Prep ASB
    Floid Vigoroso AS Splash

    This Indian made Lyko cream is fantastic - the scent is aquatic/minty in a very pleasant way, just a small dab on both cheeks is enough to give lots of thick, rich, slick lather, there’s a mild but pleasant menthol sensation, and it’s so skin friendly. The Prep and the Floid Vigoroso aftershave were a perfect finish. Just two passes gave me a dynamite BBS shave that was so enjoyable!

    Wishing y’all a great weekend - be well and stay safe![​IMG]
