SOS: January 2024

GEMonday, January 8th 2024

Razor : Gem G bar, Mfg 1955-58- mild to tame mid range. Well built with excellent chrome finish, built to last with some care for Generations. First Gem razor I owned and never looked back, it just works and with a fresh Gem PTFE blade it can still keep up with any razor made IMO when you dial one of these beautiful razors in. Had a close comfortable shave this morning.
Blade : Gem Personna SS PTFE (7) very sharp, excellent longevity, smooths out nicely, predictable + safest blade to handle.
Soap : Ach Brito Lavanda, nice mild bright lavender with a touch of mint possibly + excellent lather qualities.
Brush : Yaqi " Moka express" 24mm synthetic. Excellent lather generator, heavenly cloud like soft tips, Gentle splay scrubber + excellent lather painter.
Pre shave : (Dedicated Cashmere synthetic)Brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser with a dollop of clear Aloe Vera on the cleaned beard area.
Prep : Cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pickups. WTG + ATG + pickups.
Post shave : Ach Brito Lavanda cologne mild AS with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
Results : or CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers= Had a close comfortable shave this morning with my Gem G-bar + a Gem coated blade.

Have some great shaves!

Shave of the Week Starting 8 January 2024

Shield Predator (Titanium) razor
Gem Stainless blade
Shave Revolution Synthetic brush
Cresent City Shave Works "Irish Tweed" SS
Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
Various A/S

Been wanting one of the Shield Predators but didn't want to put out the amount a various vendors wanted so I waited and waited and waited till one came up at a reasonable price then I jumped at it. Actually, I got the Titanium one and an aluminum version as well. Anyway, first shave with the Titanium version and it was, well, terrific! Very smooth, comfortable and easy to use. To semi quote a movie, " is this the SE that I never knew I always wanted"? More shaves to follow of course, but based on the first one it's a winner. My face is very happy. Now go enjoy your day folks.

Greetings,

Early morning return to work face & head shave.

A wonderful performance from the Kanzy K100...What I like about the Kanzy K100 razor is, the balanced weight it's closed 'tech type head' which holds the blade rigidly reducing the blade to minimum with no blade over-hang which is very comfortable to shave with additional protection of catching my ear lobes or under my nose when shaving it gives a close presentable acceptable shave when paired together with the right blade choice.

An enjoyable close combined face & head shave from the Kanzy K100.

Finishing the shave off with a few small dollops of Cien Men Sensitive ASB.

My face is feeling cool smooth, & smelling divine.

Keep safe, and enjoy your day ladies & gentlemen.

Personna GEM SS PTFE
CWR
Tabac After Shave

The Tabac Shave Soap 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 Tabac After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
