Lather Catcher Sunday's Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Cella Shave Soap
Jayaruh #220 2-band Badger
C.V. Heljestrand Lather Catcher
Heljestrand Wedge
CWR
Humphrey's Witch Hazel
Cella After Shave Balm

The Cella Shave Soap lathered well with Jayaruh #220 2-band Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the C.V. Heljestrand Lather Catcher Razor and the Heljestrand Wedge Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Cella After Shave Balm. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

 

Sunday morning:

Cool shower
Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
Super Speed/7 AM
Godrej Menthol SC
Lubriderm Moisturizer
Floid Vigoroso AS Splash

These Godrej creams from India are lather monsters - just a small dab on both cheeks is enough to bury your face in super thick, rich, slick lather - the mentholated version I used this morning has a mild but nice scent, it feels icy cold, and it leaves my skin feeling great. The Lubriderm moisturizer is so soothing, and the Floid Vigoroso aftershave smells so delightful not to mention how frigid it is. Three passes gave me a dynamite BBS shave that was such a pleasure. My cousin and his wife are visiting us from Israel so we’re showing them around!

Have a great Sunday - be well and stay safe!

Same setup as the last 2 shaves except for

Gillette ~1947 Aristocrat
Permasharp (2)

Lovely “crisp” shave with this razor. It seems to be of a different construction than my other Gillettes: very much audible feedback, similar to the Merkur Progress

Very efficient 2 passer with no damage
Nice clean cutting action from the Permasharp on day 2

Less than 1 gram of TOBS Oud ( about 1/8 teaspoon) plus 4 drops of glycerine and 4 cc of water Taking care to lightly lather this is in the bowl without too much pressure on the brush, to avoid the lather reaching the knot. Beautiful creamy lather. Plenty and then some for 2 passes and the back of the neck

Superb Sunday shave, I am liking the TOBS Oud more and more
