    Razor : Razorock 2nd Generation Lupo.72 316 SSP, mid range. Excellent design + excellent machining and finish QC. I enjoy using this razor(maybe it's my technique has seasoned over the years!) but it just checks all the boxes for comfort and results. Great razor to work under the nose and beard lines(no blade tab overhang!). Had a stellar comfortable close shave this morning.
    Blade : Gillette silver blue (1) sharp and smoooth with reasonable longevity. Top tier in my shave den.
    Soap : Razorock Irish Countryside, nice unique fresh scent (similar to Irish Creed) + has some excellent lather qualities.
    Brush : Yaqi "Dandelion" 24mm Cashmere synthetic knot. Excellent lather generator, luxury, Heavenly cloud like soft tips, gentle 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 : Razorock Irish Countryside splash with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
    Results : 1-10 dial - Copy (2) 1 10.545 1.jpg or CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers=[​IMG] Had a stellar close comfortable shave this morning with my RR Lupo.72 with a GSB blade. (Does not get much better a shave for my self.)

    I had Cavendish a long time ago. I was impressed with the soft glide across my face&neck.And, of course, of the Cavendish fragrance.
