Sunday Schick shave, December 26th 2021

Razor: Schick injector G type, Canadian Variant- Manufactured in the 1940-50's, black handled, mid range, very nice razor for a seasoned shaver, I enjoy the E & G type injectors and they are very similar in performance.
Blade: Personna SS PTFE injector(7) excellent blade, very sharp, excellent longevity, smooths out nicely + predictable.
Soap: Razorock Lavender- nice masculine lavender scent + excellent lather qualities. Very seldom get cuts or weepers from lavender soaps and not sure why other excellent protection it offers.
Brush: Yaqi 24 mm silver tip badger excellent lather generator, heavenly pillow like soft tips, nice gentle scrub, excellent painter and does this brush blooms nicely when towel dried gently.
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 with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizer lotion(balm)+ scentless.
Results: CCS,DFS,BBs + no irritation + no weepers= Excellent shave with my Schick injector G type with a Personna blade.

Have some great shaves!

Hi Friends,

Merry Christmas to everyone

Here is my Christmas Shave (26.12.2021)


Razor: RazoRock Lupo // Blade: Gillette Bleue Extra // Soap: Mammoth Mood Indigo // Brush: custom made Synthetic // Aftershave: Mammoth Mood Indigo Balm

I got the Lupo and the brush on Christmas as a present. I’m glad to have them.

The Lupo shaved well in 3 relaxed passes. Biggest surprise has been the brush. The knot is a 26mm Turn’n’Shave Quartermoon. Man, what a pillow in your face. Velvet tips with just the right amount of backbone. The lather was near perfection. Never thought that a Synthetic brush can be THAT good.

It was a great great shave.

Have a great time, enjoy your shaves and stay safe and healthy.

Greetings
Thorsten

 

Hope all you shaving knuckleheads out there are able to enjoy the holiday spirit(s) in this sometimes stressful but usually wonderful season.
I’m enjoying a few of my favorite things.
Sláinte/Prost!!!

 

Thank you, Steve!
