Sunday morning:

Hot shower
Frank Mini Brush
Super Speed/Rapira day 7
Delmy SS
Aveeno Moisturizer
Booster Polar Ice AS Splash
Aramis EdT

This Delmy soap is the most el cheapo of all the el cheapos - it’s from India and even a homeless man could afford it because it sells literally for pennies but it’s a TERRIFIC soap. The container is very small but the performance is huge - the scent is so old school barbershoppy and beautiful, (right up my alley) the cute little Frank Mini synthetic brush I used it churned it up into thick, rich, cushiony lather. The only gripe I have is if you could call it a gripe is that it’s not too skin friendly but I’ve seen worse from soaps that are much more expensive. The Aveeno moisturizer made up for the lack of skincare, and the Polar Ice aftershave went on with its delightful scent that’s also so old school barbershoppy just like this soap. Two passes were enough to give me a most enjoyable BBS shave!

Have a good Sunday - be well and stay safe!

Lather Catcher Sunday's Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Mitchell's Wool Fat Shaving Soap
Jayaruh #426 Synthetic
Gem Jr. Bar Lather Catcher
Personna GEM SS PTFE
CWR
Lucky Tiger After Shave

The Mitchell's Wool Fat Shaving Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #426 Synthetic brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Gem Jr. Bar Lather Catcher Razor and a Personna GEM SS PTFE Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Lucky Tiger After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
