Williams Wednesday's Shave


Cold Water Wash
Williams Mug Shave Soap
Jayaruh #312
Gillette Super Click
Gillette Super Thin
CWR
Florida Water

My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Williams Mug Shave Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #312 brush. I did two passes with the Gillette Super Click Razor with a Gillette Super Thin blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Florida Water. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Brush: Elite Razor Manchurian White-24mmx50mm
Aftershave: Country Club Southern Oud

Sadly, Kevin at Country Club has stopped making his excellent aftershaves and soaps. His aftershave scents have been top tier for me for 5 years now.

Country Club Spice Trail today. 20 seconds to load the Elite Razor Manchurian White brush. Easy, thick, slick, lather. Schick Plus Platinum in the Gillette Fat Boy. Excellent smooth, close, shave. I finished with Country Club Southern Oud aftershave.

If you like I like:

Stirling Glacial Black Cherry SS
Stirling Glacial Unscented ASB
Fine Snake Bite AS Splash
Aramis EdT

Only a nutcase like me could go three passes with such a frigidly-cold soap like this. Wowwwwww, the scent is heavenly, the lather is sublime, and the menthol effect can chase a polar bear out of the North Pole. The Glacial Unscented balm and the Snake Bite both added lots of extra menthol goodness. BBS as BBS could be!

 

Thank you very much Doug - you are too kind

Hope I didn`t flank my razor this morning.

An astonishing near BBS with 1 pass and some diligent touching up. A WTG with Neutrogena`s `Slick as s--t` formula made it as easy as falling off a log.
God Bless and great shaving to all. You`ll have fill in your own blanks this time!
