SoS: May 2023

DE SOTD, Thursday, May 25th 2023

Razor : Yaqi Slope slant, 316SS V2 - Mfg 2023>, mild range to mid range depending on blade used, machining and finish are adequate for my shaving needs. I always liked slant razors and this one is no exception. Kai SS blade with the Slope slant are a good combination for my shave.
Blade : Kai SS extra wide(3) sharp & smooth with excellent longevity.
Soap : Mitchell's wool fat, nice mild clean scent with excellent lather qualities. Makes great Ubber lather also.
Brush : Yaqi "Robin" 24mm boar bristle, excellent lather generator, soft split end boar bristle tips, nice 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 : witch hazel beard cleanse + Nivea refreshing lotion + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
Results : or CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers= Excellent shave with my Yaqi Slope slant with a Kai SS extra wide blade.



Have some great shaves!

 

Thanks Jeff! The soap is made by an Artisan soap maker in South Wales. They do have an online presence but I think they mainly visit markets and craft fairs. The soap is actually very good producing a great lather and it gives a great post shave result......oh....it will take an obscene amount of water. Folk Soap is their name

It’s from the Netherlands and it’s over 450 years old. The company knows what it’s doing!

Friday morning - my birthday shave:

L’Oréal Men Expert Facial Wash
Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Super Speed/Rapira day 12
Stirling Frozen Tundra SS
Prep ASB
Alt Innsbruck AS Splash

A year older today and hopefully a year wiser!

This morning I wanted to show my brother Rod’s soaps some love so I selected the Frozen Tundra and I’m happy that I did. This soap has such a beautiful scent that’s a blend of peppermint, wintergreen, with earthy notes, the lather is such a pleasure to work up, there’s no shortage of menthol - in fact it’s the second coldest Stirling soap after the Glacials, and it has such soothing, gentle skincare. Needless to say the Prep and the Alt Innsbruck were a perfect finishing combo. Three passes gave me a helluva fine BBS shave that I enjoyed immensely!

Have a great weekend - be well and stay safe!

Friday's Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse

Jayaruh #277 Silvertip Badger
Schick M-2 Adjustable
Personna Injector Blade
CWR
Cella After Shave Balm

The De Vergulde Hand Shave Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #277 Silvertip Badger brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Schick M-2 Adjustable Razor and a Personna Injector 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...
