    Shaving recipe for today.

    Prep: Warm shower / Cussons Imperial Leather ~ Arctic Ocean & Icelandic Moss Shower Gel.

    Pre:

    Cold wet flannel to my face.
    Simple ~ Sensitive Bar Soap + Nuage Menthol shaving Oil.
    Brush : Omega 10051.
    Face Lather.
    Soap : Kent luxury Shaving Soap.
    Blade: Rapira Swedish Supersteel. (2)
    Razor: Weishi/Yintal 9306-I.

    Post:
    Cold Water Face Rinse./Homemade peppermint Lavender, + eucalyptus, Tea Tree Oil Witch Hazel Mixture./ Williams ~ Aqua Velva ASL. (Spanish Version)/Aloe Vera Gel.

    Greetings,
    Early morning shave....I had all intentions of finishing my shaving week off with the Baili BD 'a closed 'tech type head' Chinese clone, but decided to use the Weishi/yintal 9306-I instead. Like all my other Chinese clone razors that have been passed on to me this week it performance was acceptable pairing together with the Rapira SS wonderfully on it's last use resulting in a DFS/Near BBS 3 Pass + pick ups shave with no errors to report....What more can i ask for?.
    I have never been on a obsessional shaving quest to get a 'PERFECT BBS SHAVE' each time i shave i personally find it pointless to cause unnecessary risk of nicks & irritation to my face or head as 6-8 hours later no matter the aggression of the razor & blade duo or shaving method my face or head feels like sandpaper again...However, this is something that i don't mind because i look forward to my next shave....I get great enjoyment from this traditional wet shaving hobby.

    Finishing to the shave off with a small dollop of Aloe Vera Gel.

    My face is feeling super smooth & smelling divine.;)

    Stay safe, and enjoy your day ladies & gentlemen.:cool:

    Thursday's Shave
    zcws.jpg

    Cold Water Rinse
    Arko Shave Soap
    Jayaruh #220 Synthetic
    Ever-Ready 1914 Army
    Personna GEM SS PTFE
    CWR
    Aqua Velva Iced Blue

    The Arko Shave Soap face-lathered well with Jayaruh #220 Synthetic Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Ever-Ready 1914 Army razor with a Personna GEM SS PTFE blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Aqua Velva Iced Blue AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Thursday morning:

    L’Oreal Men Expert Facial Wash
    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Super Speed/Minora day 12
    Mickey Lee Paradise Frost SS
    Anherb AS Gel
    Aqua Velva Ice Blue AS Splash

    This morning I decided to go with some stuff that I haven’t used for a very long time. This Paradise Frost is a tallow soap with a lovely citrusy scent, its lather is thicker than hell, it’s fairly slick, it has a mild menthol sensation, and its postshave care is pretty good. The Anherb gel is from India, it smells very nice, it gives a really strong menthol punch, and is it ever soothing. I believe I have this bottle since 2006 when my good friend Rene Binda sent it to me with a boatload of other goodies. Finally the Aqua Velva gave me its nice old school scent that I love so much and a delightful icy cold slap. The Minora blade is finally starting to show a few signs of fatigue but it helped me get a great BBS shave and I’m sure it’ll last until Sunday.

    Be well and stay safe!
