Williams Wednesday's Shave


Cold Water Rinse
Williams Mug Soap
Tom's B-3 Badger Brush
Schick M Adjustable
Schick Proline B20
CWR
Pinaud Clubman Classic Vanilla AS

The Williams Mug Soap lathered well with Tom's B-3 Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Schick M Adjustable Razor with a Schick Proline B20 Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Pinaud Clubman Classic Vanilla AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Wednesday morning:

Stirling Mentholated Pre Shave Soap
Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Super Speed/Astra Green day 3
Master Soap Creations Cherry Freeze SS
Prep ASB
Aqua Velva Sport AS Splash
Bleu de Chanel Deodorant Stick
Bleu de Chanel EdP

These Astra Greens are really terrific blades - they’re so sharp, smooth, as well as forgiving. I’m really loving this gorgeous Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole brush - it’s a hell of a lather maker. This is the tallow version of Cherry Freeze - the scent is to me anyway, nicer than the glycerine version, I find the lather is easier to work up, it’s richer, thicker, and slicker, this tallow one has a great menthol punch to it, and the skincare is perfect. The Prep and the Aqua Velva Sport aftershave both gave me lots of additional chilly, loving care. What a brilliant shave this was and it was so enjoyable!

Enjoy your day and your shaves - be well and safe!
