ASRazor shave , Monday, Dec4th 2023

Razor : Star bar #4 lather catcher- Mfg 1919-20, tame mid range. Over 100 years later the this little lather catcher is performing like a champ. It works the best with a fresh blade on 1-3 uses I have experienced and I enjoy it very much. Had a close comfortable shave this morning.
Blade : Gem Personna SS PTFE(1) very sharp, excellent longevity, smoooths out nicely, predictable + safest blade to handle.
Soap : Razorock Santa Maria del Fiore, nice vanilla scent with light tobacco + excellent lather qualities.
Brush : Yaqi "Mocha express" 26mm 2band badger, Excellent lather generator, pillow like soft tips, nice splay scrubber + great lather painter. Bought this one sale 2 + years ago on a bargain sale. At the time no one seemed that interested in badger brushes IMO.
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 Santa Maria del Fiore with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
Results : or CCS,DFS,BBs + no irritation + no weepers= Had a close comfortable shave this morning with my Star bar #4 lather catcher with a fresh Gem coated blade.


Have some great shaves!

DE SOTD, December 5th 2023

Razor : Yaqi 2nd Generation Mellon head razor 316SSP with a teardrop 316SSP handle- Mfg 2023>, tame mid to mid range. Excellent machining and finish QC with great design from the past and latest better future upgrades. The razor performs well and is one of my favorites from a large rotation of other stainless steel razors. The audio feedback is a unique sizzling sound of whiskers being snipped off, they did not stand much of chance with razor & blade combination IMO. Had a stellar close comfortable shave this morning.
Blade : Polsilver SI(5) sharp and smooth with excellent longevity. Polsilver is performing well with this razor.
Soap : Yaqi "The Green" nice fresh unique natural scent(Dupe of Lacoste green cologne" should of bought a tub of this great soap.
Brush : Yaqi "Bali" 24mm 3band badger. Excellent lather generator, luxury pillow like soft tips, nice gentle scrubber + great lather painter. Great little handled brush.
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 : Yaqi the Green aftershave with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
Results : or CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers= Had a stellar close comfortable shave this morning with my Yaqi Mellon head 316SSP razor with a excellent Polsilver SI blade. (It does not get much better for myself in shaving!).

Have some great shaves!
