DE SOTD, Saturday, August 26th 2023

Razor : Gillette New Long comb, Canadian variant- Mfg 1930's, tame mid range to mid range. When learning Traditional wet shaving I thought this razor was aggressive and now it feels like a nice tame mid range(My beard has changed for easier shaving IMO) Had a close comfortable shave this morning.
Blade : Gillette Perma Sharp- sharp and smooth + longevity? It has been a long time since using this blade and the packing has changed + wrapper. Made in India for Gillette (P&G).
Soap : Yaqi The Green- very nice fresh natural scent with excellent lather qualities. The scent is addictive and is referenced to similar Lacoste essential green cologne according to Yaqi reference. Master soap creations did a nice job for scent and quality for Yaqi soaps and fragrance IMO.
Brush : Yaqi "Dandelion"24mm cashmere knot, excellent lather generator, heavenly cloud like soft tips , nice splay scrubber + excellent lather painter. Very nice handle and knot for my shaving needs.
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 : Yaqi Green AS with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
Results : or CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers= excellent close shave with my Gillette New long comb with a Gillette Perma sharp.

Have some great shaves!

This was a Saturday evening shave after a day of yard work, smoking ribs, and war with some flying jerks. Started with a cold shower to feel human and finished with two passes for a nice comfortable shave. The new brush is not fully broken in yet, but is coming along. It is starting to release soap more easily. The razor is a treat as always.

Enjoy your day.

 

Sunday morning’s Grand Freeze:

L’Oreal Men Expert Facial Wash

Wow is all I can say - what an awesome three pass BBS shave this was!

Enjoy your Sunday and your shaves - be well and stay safe!

The PSC Caffeinated Shave Cream lathered well with Jayaruh #445 Synthetic brush. Two passes and touch ups with the 1907 Gem Jr. Lather Catcher Razor and a Personna GEM SS PTFE Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Dickinson's Witch Hazel and then PSC Caffeinated AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
