SOS: March 2021

DE SOTD, Thurs, Mar 11th 2021, Mostly Razorock shave today with a big smile for being spoiled.

Razor: Razorock all Stainless steel Game changer.84- MFG 2018>, excellent <mid range, very smooth, I like a Kai blade in this razor for excellent shaves.
Blade: Kai SS (8) Excellent blade, Sharp & smooth with good longevity, wider than standard Gillette blade by .009 thousands of a inch or .00045" per side for more blade feel, nice in razors that are milder and will give a nice boost in blade exposure if desired.
Soap: Razorock "The Dead Sea", great scent, excellent lather qualities with good post shave feel.
Brush: Razorock Plissoft 24mm, excellent lather generator, soft tips with excellent scrub & excellent lather painter, Oldest synthetic I have in my collection of synthetics with years of service with no let downs.
Pre shave: Brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser + a dollop of clear Aloe Vera gel on the cleaned beard area.
Prep: Cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pickups. WTG + ATG + pickups.
Post shave: Razorock "The Dead Sea" after shave with witch hazel + a dollop of Nivea balm.
Results: CCS,DFS,BBs + no irritation + no weepers = excellent shave with my RR GC.84 with a excellent Kai SS blade.

Have some excellent shaves! Stay & think safe in these times!

 

Agree 100% about the LPL. Had three or four different versions. They were mediocre at best.

 

very cool Tim.i have a full tin of Grandstaff's spicy vetiver that i pull out occasionally.had it over 4 years.. my gold label is the first version as well.

Thanks. Wild West Brush Works. I'm pretty sure that's the first multi-segment brush Derek ever made, as well as the first one he ever put a coin in. Best of all, Derek is a UofA fan, but that didn't stop him from making an amazing ASU brush.
