    Razor : Yaqi Excalibur SE 50mm with a Yaqi Milano 316 SSP handle. Mfg 2021>, tame mid range. Small head parts makes using a wash cloth to assemble a little easier. This is a affordable entry razor head to try AC type blades IMO. I usually get decent shaves with this razor. Had a close comfortable shave this morning.
    Blade : Schick proline (5) sharp and smooth with reasonable longevity.
    Soap : Ach Brito Lavanda cream, very nice scent of Lavender + uplifting with excellent lather qualities.
    Brush : Yaqi "Viper" 24mm boar bristle brush. Excellent lather generator, soft split end bristle hairs, nice splay scrubber + great 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 : Ach Brito Lavanda cologne aftershave + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
    Results : [​IMG] or CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers=[​IMG] Had a close comfortable shave this morning with my Yaqi Excalibur SE 50mm with a Schick proline blade.

    GEMonday, May 27th 2024

    Razor : Gem Push button- Mfg 1958-65, mild to tame mid range. One of my favorite ASR razors for looks with black and gold. This little razor still performs well and with good technique and sharp blade it will give stellar shaves. Had a close comfortable shave this morning.
    Blade : Gem Personna SS PTFE(3). Very sharp, excellent longevity, smooths out nicely, predictable + safest blade to handle.
    Soap : Ach Brito Lavanda cream, nice lavender with a (mild peppermint ??) in the back ground scent + excellent lather qualities.
    Brush : Yaqi "Moka Express" 24mm synthetic. Excellent lather generator, luxury heavenly 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 : Ach Brito Lavanda splash with witch hazel+ a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
    Results : [​IMG] or CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers=[​IMG] Had a close comfortable shave this morning with my Gem push button razor with a coated Gem blade. Very close to a close BBS this morning but still borderline so 9.5 will work!

    ASRazor shave, Tuesday, May 28th 2024

    Razor : Gem Featherweight, 1st Generation, 1oz. Mfg 1950-52, mild to tame mid range. I had a itching to use a another Gem or ASR razor after MMMonday shave and looking through my razor racks this little jewel brought back some great thoughts of a nice comfortable shaves.
    Well built and designed to last with a little care. Had a close and comfortable shave this morning.
    Blade : Gem Personna SS PTFE (4) Very sharp, excellent longevity, smooths out nicely, predictable + safest blade to handle.
    Soap : Razorock Lavender [​IMG], one of the better soaps that has ever come out of Razorock IMO. The scent that this soap produces is a masculine lavender with some of the best lather qualities I have ever used. (obsolete?? for now, 3rd tub.)
    Brush : Yaqi "Purple haze" 24mm synthetic Mew knot. Excellent lather generator, luxury cloud like soft tips, gentle splay scrubber + excellent lather painter. Great brush for my shaving needs I have concluded.
    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 King Lois Lavender with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
    Results : Dial 9.5.jpg or CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers=[​IMG] Had a close comfortable shave this morning with my ASR Gem Featherweight razor with a coated Gem blade. Great shave today!
