    No Name Razor
    Astra SP blade
    Williams SS (vintage)
    No Name Synthetic brush
    Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
    Various A/S

    Mentioned before that I got the No Name Razor and brush at a local street fair from a New Orleans vendor, Cresent City Shave works. Tried them again today, along with the vintage Willams, and got a great shave. For me, the vintage Williams works as well as many modern artisan soap makers. This is what I've been looking for this week so I'll use this setup the rest of this week. My face is happy. Now go enjoy your day folks

    Razor : Razorock 2nd gen Lupo.72 - Mfg Jan2021>, mid range. Excellent machining and finish QC. I like the design of this razor with concaved corners and scalloped safety bar. One of my favorite DE razors that performs well for excellent results. Had a stellar close comfortable shave this morning.
    Blade : Gillette Polsilver SI (6)- sharp and smooth with excellent longevity.
    Soap : Razorock American barber- unique parallel scent with great lather qualities.
    Brush : Yaqi "Lucky dice" 26mm brown whiskers synthetic fan knot. Excellent lather generator, heavenly luxury cloud like 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 : American barber aftershave with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
    Results : Dial 10 stellar.jpg or CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers=[​IMG] Had a stellar close comfortable shave this morning with my RR Lupo.72 with a Polsilver SI.

    I don’t have a well developed sense of smell. The first time I used it I didn’t detect much. This time it was distinctive, hard to describe but I liked it. The only question is, “should I add a menthol bomb to it?” :happy097:

    Hi Friends,

    Here my Wednesday Shave (06.12.2023)

    15308AD6-54E4-4FCD-B67E-64C693FB94E2.jpeg
    Pre: Furbo Sansdolor // Razor: Supply SE // Blade: Personna Injector (2) // Soap: SV Felce Aromatica // Brush: PAA Green Ray // Aftershave: Trumper´s Lime Skin Food

    Second shave with the Supply SE. Another winner. It is a very smooth and gentle razor. Very thoroughly too. I love it.

    Especially the way this razor feels on the skin while shaving is simply amazing. Quite a bit like the PILS razor…it „pushes“ the stubbles away instead of „shaving“ it off. I hope you know what i would like to say.

    So, 2,5 joyful passes with much fun.

    A 10 out of 10

    Take your time, enjoy your shaves and stay safe and healthy.

    Greetings
    Thorsten
