ASRazor shave, Dec 14th 2021

Razor: Star Bar #4,-Mfg 1919-20, excellent tame mid range, Star( Kampfe brothers, Brooklyn NY) made excellent lather catchers and this one is a good daily driver IMO. Star brand where pioneers in the first safety razor produced for world wide in sales.
Blade: Gem Personna SS PTFE(2) very sharp, great longevity(40% longer life than AC blades) smooths out nicely, predictable.
Soap: Speick, One of the better soaps I have tried, nice mild spice scent, excellent lather qualities, triple milled stick. (misted)
Brush: Yaqi Red zebra 26mm , excellent lather generator, heavenly cloud like soft tips(luxury face feel) nice gentle scrub + excellent painter.
Pre shave: Brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser + a dollop of clear Aloe Vera gel on the cleaned beard area.
Prep: Cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pickups.
Post shave: Ach Brito Lavanda AS with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(balm) + scentless.
Results: CCS,DFS,BBs + no irritation + 1 blemish weeper= Excellent shave with my Star bar + a Gem coated blade.


Have some great shaves!

Have a great day all!

 

A very nice post about Pewter, Jeff. You are right about how sad it is to say goodbye.

You're welcome Jeff! I bet he was and I feel bad for you my friend! I've had my dog for seven years and before that I never really understood the connection between humans and their animal companions. I totally get it now.
