    Razor : Yaqi Excalibur SE AC 50mm with a Milano 316 SSP handle- Mfg 2021>, tame mid range. Simple blade locating design + simple blade clamping & small head parts makes it a very nimble razor to work my face. One of my favorite SE razors my chromed Zamak Excalibur just works well & some what forgiving a shave IMO. Had a Stellar comfortable close shave this morning.
    Blade : Schick proline p30- sharp & smooth with reasonable longevity for a AC blade.
    Soap : Speick stick, very mild spicy scent with some excellent lather qualities. Tripled milled also.
    Brush : Yaqi "Aqua" 24mm High mountain Silvertip 3band badger. Excellent lather generator, pillow like soft tips, nice 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 : Razorock King Louis Lavender with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
    Results : 1-10 dial - Copy (2) 1 10.545 1.jpg or CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers=[​IMG] Had a close stellar comfortable shave this morning with my Yaqi Excalibur 50mm with a Schick proline blade.

    Greetings,

    (Face & Head Shave)

    New set up to start the weekend... my recent sandalwood fragranced shave have made me reach for the LEA Classic Sensitive Shaving Cream which i haven't used in some time and is great for the autumn & winter months. The sandalwood scent is different comparing it to the Proraso sandalwood scent it's more of a light fresh sweet scent to my nose with a nice mild menthol kick feel and pairs together really well with the Floid ASL.

    The dependable Supply V2 as always mowed through my head stubble with effortless ease. Injector razors are such comfortable efficient shaving tools especially for head shaving.

    A close comfortable face & head shave with no errors to report. Finishing the shave off with a generous splash of Floid Mentolado Vigoroso ASL.

    My face & precious swede are both feeling super smooth & smelling divine.;)

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

    Saturday morning:

    L’Oreal Men Expert Facial Wash
    Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
    Super Speed/7 AM day 6
    De Vergulde Hand SS
    De Vergulde Hand ASB
    De Vergulde Hand AS Spray

    It’s amazing how such cheap stuff like this De Vergulde Hand can be so fantastic. This soap has been around over 450 years so obviously the company knows what it’s doing. The scent is absolutely gorgeous and so old school, it’s so easy to lather, it gives such slickness, and the postshave feeling is very comfortable. The matching balm is slightly mentholated, it’s really soothing as well as moisturizing, and it has the same beautiful scent as the soap. Finally the matching aftershave spray went on with a bit of a sting but then it felt wonderful and it has that same delightful scent as the soap and the balm. Three passes gave me a dynamite BBS shave that was so pleasurable.

    Enjoy the weekend and your shaves - be well and stay safe. [​IMG]
