Razor : Gem G bar - Mfg 1955-58, mild - tame mid range. Well built and the handle has a different heal design than other Gem razors. This little razor has a excellent chrome coating and is built to last generations. Had a close comfortable shave this morning.
Blade :Gem Personna SS PTFE (4) very sharp, excellent longevity, smooths out nicely, predictable + safest blade to handle.
Soap : TOBS Sandalwood- nice herbal scented sandal wood 6-7/10 with excellent lather qualities.
Brush : Yaqi "Moka express" 26mm 2band badgers. Excellent lather generator, pillow like soft tips, nice splay scrubber + great lather painter. My first badger ever bought and still going strong.
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 : Ogallala Bayrum with Sandalwood + a dollop of Geo F Trumper Sandalwood skin food moisturizer.
Results : or CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers= Had a close comfortable shave this morning with my Gem G bar with a coated SS Gem blade.
