    Weber DLC razor
    Sharp Star blade
    Vie-Long Silver Tip brush
    Palmolive Mentholated SC
    Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
    Pinaud Clubman A/S

    Another great shave from the Weber/Sharp Star combo. I think the Palmolive SC helped a lot too, love that stuff. My face is very happy and now go enjoy your day folks

    I hate to say it but I changed my mind for Saturday's shave! (for the third time!)

    Instead, this will be my setup:

    C. W. Beggs Facial Wash
    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Junjie/new Derby
    Lea Classic SC
    Krampert's Frostbite AS Splash


    I really enjoy this Junjie every so often. It lets me rest my Super Speed, and even though it's a mild razor it still gives me good shaves. It's been at least three or four months since I've used the Lea Classic cream so it's time to give it a go. I was telling a guy from the Greek wetshaving forum that it's so nice and I decided to finally practice what I preach. I still can't figure out the scent, but it's awesome. The lather is a pleasure to whip up, it's quite cooling, and its post-shave care is fabulous. No balm is necessary with the Krampert's Frostbite because it's not only ice-cold, it feels soothing and protective as well as moisturizing!

    Today I tried to play with the adjustability of the Fasan loosening a bit of the handle... I think I loosened a bit more than needed hehe not so smooth as the previous two shaves and the end result was not any better too. As a final commentary to this lended Fasan Double Slant: it certainly piqued my interest in these razors and they are now on my wishlist.

    SOTD_02_02_2018.jpg
    I admit, I do like this razor - for a bargain-priced disposable. No fuss, no muss. Pure utilitarian design in cheap plastic.
    I LOVE the scent of the Venus Vanilla Cashmere! And I needed that after yesterday's malodorous Horse Hair experience.
    Got a quick and painless 1-pass DFS. Less than 5 minutes including prep & cleanup.
    Ready - or - not: here comes the weekend!

    Saturday Straights' Shave
    zcws.gif

    Proraso Pre Shave
    Ingram
    Oscar11 Synthetic
    Rocket 5/8
    CWR
    Thayer's Lemon WH
    Florida Water

    I started off with Proraso Pre Shave. The Ingram Shaving Cream face-lathered well with the Oscar11 Synthetic brush. I did two passes with the Rocket 5/8 Razor and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Thayer's Lemon WH and then Florida Water AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
