Saturday's Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
CTAPT Shaving Cream
Jayaruh #461 Synthetic
Ever-Ready Peerless
Personna Gem Stainless PTFE
CWR
Humphrey's Witch Hazel
Pinaud Clubman AS

The CTAPT Shaving Cream lathered well with Jayaruh #461 Synthetic Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Ever-Ready Peerless SE razor and the Personna Gem Stainless PTFE Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Humphrey's Witch Hazel and Pinaud Clubman AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Great shave my friend!

Frosted Lavender…..that’ll be my soap and aftershave choice for tomorrow!

Saturday morning:

Would I call this a Grand Freeze? Yes!

L’Oréal Men Expert Facial Wash
Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
Super Speed/Wilkinson day 4
Godrej Menthol SC
Gold Bond Moisturizer
Osage Rub AS Splash
Christian Dior Fahrenheit EdT

Although not as intense as yesterday this setup was pretty damned frigid. The Godrej Menthol cream from India was reformulated some time ago and the scent (to me) is nicer, the lather is so thick, rich as well as slick, the menthol sensation is powerful, and the postshave care is even better than before. The Gold Bond moisturizer and the Rubby Dubby Doo were a perfect combination with lots of menthol goodness. Finally the Fahrenheit fragrance which is so lovely and everything is in good order. Another awesome three pass BBS shave that was so pleasurable!

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

Sunday Morning 9/2/25
"An Old axe with a new axe".

• Hot shower
• Razor : Blacklands Blackbird SS Satin finish.
• Blade : Wizamet. (2)
• Brush : Yaqi caramel cats whiskers synthetic.
• Soap : Michelle’s wool fat new formula.
• Aftershave balm: TN Dickinson’s witch hazel
• Weight : 94 grams.

Hi all,
This morning was the second shave with the Blackbird SS.
No surprize it was even better than two days ago close , smooth and efficient.
This razor have a fair bit of blade feel but I have so far not felt like its going to nick me.
Will use it next shave with the same blade to see if it drops of at all.

The wool fat still does ok in the new formula I reckon.
Lathers up nice and thick but dries out quicker than the old one lack of tallow I guess. (unfortunately don't have the old one)
One pass WTG-ATG no touch ups.
Done.
Cheers.
