    Friday's Cold Water Shave

    Cold Water Rinse
    Proraso Red Sandalwood
    Jayaruh #371 Badger
    Gillette Red and Black OT by Tom
    Astra SP
    CWR
    Humphrey's Witch Hazel

    The Proraso Red Sandalwood Shaving Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #371 Badger brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Gillette Red and Black OT by Tom and the Astra SP Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Humphrey's Witch Hazel. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Razor : Yaqi Chrome Excalibur with a Yaqi 316 SS polished handle- Mfg 2021>, tame mid range, interesting clamping design, fairly accurate blade alignment on this this model, affordable + I always get a close enjoyable shave with the Yaqi Excalibur razor head.
    Blade : Schick p30 AC Proline 50mm, sharp & smooth + reasonable longevity for any AC blade I have used.
    Soap : Tabac, different mild flowery clean scent with excellent lather qualities. Excellent post shave feel with this soap also.
    Brush : Yaqi "Ever helpful" 22 mm 2 band badger, excellent lather generator, firm pillow soft tips, excellent scrubber, good lather painter. This brush was designed for those fellow who love the scrub, shorter loft + dense packed with soft tips = best scrub brush in my harem of different brushes. It is just a different face feel that is not like my boar brushes, I bought it on sale and still enjoy it once in a while and glade I purchased it.
    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 : Pinaud Clubman with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
    Results :CCS,DFS,BBs + no irritation + 1 blemish weeper=[​IMG] Excellent shave with my Yaqi Excalibur with a Schick AC proline blade. Very enjoyable shave this morning!

    Fine L'Orange Noir~~Simpson Harvard 4~~Heljestrand MK32~~Terre d'Hermès Parfum
    Haven't shaved with a true straight razor in a while. It was somewhat awkward---
    especially on the chin, but I did manage to remove stubble and leave the epidermis intact.
    The Fine soap, once again, proved itself a worthy challenger to the best of the best soaps.
    Love the scent and it pairs wonderfully with the Terre d'Hermès parfum.

    Well, here we go with Saturday's edition of "Throwback Thursday":

    prep-Clubman Pinaud Beard&Bodywash(in shower)
    shave-Clunman Pinaud Classic Barber Shave Cream*
    razor-Gillette Sensor Deuce Pivot DisposeABLE
    A.S.-Clubman Pinaud 12.5 oz.**

    *
    brushless shaving cream in a tub(16 oz).One of the newer items from a company that began in 1830, when Doc Pinaud was 20 years old. Course most Clubman Pinaud products have "1810" on them, honoring his birth.

    **-His aftershaves have been around much longer than the brushless cream.

    nice touch Gary, as Pinaud was a Frenchman himself.
