    sos20241115.jpg Friday's Cold Water Shave

    Cold Water Rinse
    Old Spice Original Shave Cream
    Jayaruh #454
    Schick C
    Personna Injector
    Cold Water Rinse
    Humphrey's Witch Hazel
    Old Spice Cologne

    The Old Spice Original Shave Cream lathered well with the Jayaruh #454 two-band badger brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Schick C Repeater Razor and the Personna Injector Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Humphrey's Witch Hazel and Tabac After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Thanks Barry. Which do you prefer, the LEA cream or the veggie stick? Can you notice the difference?

    There is difference in between the cream & veggie stick, the cream contains (Tallow) which my skin loves & the Veggie stick/Soap contains lanolin & glycerine which are also make the new formula perform & feel great on the skin. Difference in performance I personally find both equal to one another. The Vie-Long Shave stick (Tallow) is the old LEA stick/soap formula before LEA stopped using tallow purely down to using cheaper ingredients. The new version based veggie has a slightly different scent to the tallow based products, but performance wise they are both excellent.

    SOTD: 11/15/2024

    Razor: Schick E2 Injector (1935-45)
    Blade: Schick, 1st use
    Brush: Simpson Trafalgar T2
    Bowl: Dirty Bird “Bill” Bowl
    Soap: C.O. Bigelow “Premium Shave Cream” With Eucalyptus Oil
    Aftershave: Cold River Soap Works Spring Limited Edition

    A peaceful afternoon shave with the E2 Schick. Funny how it feels a little milder than the G8. Unless I accidentally dulled the blade while injecting a new one in. It’s been a few years since using the E2 and it’s good to be back. A smooth shave all the way with CO Bigelow with its refreshing eucalyptus.
