    Supply SE Injector
    Supply Black Label Blade
    CWR
    Dickinson's Witch Hazel

    The Tabac Shave Soap lathered well with Jayaruh #445 Synthetic brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Supply SE Injector Razor and a Supply Black Label Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Dickinson's Witch Hazel and then Tabac AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Tuesday morning:

    Hot shower
    Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
    Junjie/Astra Green day 2
    De Vergulde Hand SS
    De Vergulde Hand ASB
    De Vergulde Hand AS Spray

    What a lovely soap this De Vergulde Hand is - I always enjoyed the beautiful old school scent as well as the thick, rich, creamy, slick lather it provides, and I find it to be very gentle on my skin. The matching balm is not only moisturizing and very soothing, it’s slightly mentholated so to me that’s a bonus. The matching aftershave spray has the same gorgeous scent and after a two second sting it feels great. Unfortunately it was discontinued quite some time ago. My Junjie helped to give me a most enjoyable and easy BBS in three swift passes![​IMG]


    Have a great day - be well and stay safe

    Razor : Razorock Wunderbar slant 316SSP with a modified Micromatic handle- Mfg 2017-2022, mid to upper mid range, machining and finish QC are excellent. I like to use a steep approach (riding the bar) with a short handle and light touch seems to work the best for excellent results. Had a close shave with no issues this morning.
    Blade : Gillette Perma sharp(P&G)(3), sharp and smooth with reasonable longevity. Nice blade IMO.
    Soap : TOBS Herbal Sandalwood, very nice scent of herbs and sandal wood + excellent lather qualities. A must if not tried yet.
    Brush : Yaqi "Moka Express" 26mm Husky synthetic knot, excellent lather generator, luxury 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 soap residual cleanse + Ogallala Bay rum with Sandalwood + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
    Results : 1-10 dial - Copy (2)2 template 10.1.jpg or CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers=[​IMG] Excellent shave with no issues with my Razorock Wunderbar slant with a Gillette Perma sharp. The Wunderbar slant takes a few times of use to dial in but after that it works well, the RR Super slant sounds like a fine slant that has replaced the Wunderbar is my best guess.
