Hi Friends,

Here is my Shave of the Day (07.01.2024)


Pre: Grooming Dept unscented // Razor: Rockwell 6S on Plate 3 // Blade: Gillette Platinum // Soap: PAA Harvest Moon // Brush: PAA Solar Flare // Aftershave: PAA Harvest Moon

A mighty fine 3-pass shave. Very smooth and gentle.

The PAA Set is awesome. The scent is so wonderful. Calming, relaxing and very enjoyable. Great great stuff.

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

Greetings
Thorsten

Menthol Monday's Cold Water Shave

The C.O. Bigelow Shave Cream lathered well with the Jayaruh #71 Synthetic Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Ever-Ready 1924 Razor and a Personna GEM SS PTFE Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Osage Rub. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Awesome three pass shave this morning.

The Dscosmetic X2 does an excellent job. What I find interesting is the cap and base plate will interchange with Razorock Gamechanger base plates and caps.

Happy Monday everyone!
