DE SOTD, Thursday, June 20th 2024

Razor : Razorock Game changer.84 316 SSP with a RR Radio 316 SSP handle. Mfg 2018>, tame mid to mid range depending on blade used. I like to use the Kai SS blade for a little more blade feel. I receive very close comfortable shaves using the Kai blade. Had a close comfortable stellar shave this morning.
Blade : Kai SS extra wide (4) sharp and smooth with excellent longevity. Top tier blade for my shaving needs, works well in mild razors who want a slight bump up in blade feel.
Soap : Razorock XXX Fresco , nice unique clean XXX scent (mentholated)+ excellent lather qualities.
Brush : Yaqi "Lucky casinos" 26mm timber wolf knot. Excellent lather generator, luxury 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 : Razorock XXX Fresco splash with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
Results : or CCS,DFS,BBs + no irritation + no weepers= Had a close comfortable stellar shave this morning with my RR GC.84 with a Kai SS blade.


Have some great shaves!
