Not much pleasure shaving when your facial skin is very dry, which mine is at the moment. Todays Shave was made comfortable by the super lather from the La Toja,which I had grated into a bowl to make application easier.

Sunday Schick shave, July 16th 2023

Razor : Schick i2 with the hydro-magic feature- Mfg 1954-57, mild to tame mid range, excellent design for quick cleaning of blade + finish is adequate for my shaving needs. Very nice razor to work the face and received a close comfortable shave this morning.
Blade : Personna SS PTFE injector (11) sharp and smooth with excellent longevity. I usually toss after 10 shaves but the blade was showing good life left so why not give another 1 or 2 shaves I was thinking.
Soap : Razorock Emperor- sharp parallel scent that's unique with excellent lather qualities. I enjoy the aftershave scent slightly more.
Brush : Yaqi "Red Zebra" 26mm snow leopard synthetic, excellent lather generator, heavenly luxury cloud like soft tips, gentle splay scrubber + excellent lather painter. One of my favorite synthetics for performance and in the hand feels natural.
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 : Razorock Emperor after shave with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
Results : or CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + 1 weeper operator error = excellent shave with my Schick i2 with a Personna injector blade.

Have some great shaves!
