    Thursday's Cold Water Shave

    Cold Water Rinse
    Derby Shave Soap Stick
    Jayaruh #2 Badger
    Gem Flying Wing
    Personna GEM SS PTFE
    CWR
    Dickinson's Witch Hazel
    Lilac Vegetal

    The Derby Shave Soap Stick lathered well with the Jayaruh #2 Badger brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Gem Flying Wing and Personna GEM SS PTFE Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Dickinson's Witch Hazel and then Lilac Vegetal. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Thursday morning:

    L’Oréal Men Expert Facial Wash
    Razorock 26mm Monster
    Super Speed/7 AM day 11
    Lider Classic SC
    Aveeno Moisturizer
    Hega AS Splash
    Aramis EdT

    I somehow overslept so when I got up I showered fast and I grabbed the first thing in front of me which was this Lider Classic cream which is from Poland and very, very nice. I’ve had this cream for a really long time and for some reason I neglected it so this morning I decided to give it a spin. It has a lovely lemony scent with perhaps a hint of mint, it gives fabulous lather from just a small dab on both cheeks, and it leaves a very comfortable postshave feeling. The Aveeno moisturizer and the Hega aftershave from Sweden were a great finish, and the beautiful Aramis fragrance topped it all off. Two passes did the job for me - the 7 AM blade is still performing quite well. A good BBS shave that was really enjoyable!

    See you all tomorrow - enjoy your day![​IMG]

    Razor : Yaqi V1 Sentinel 1.5mm with a Yaqi Chippendale (Darwin looking) 316SSP handle- Mfg 2022>, mild range. Machining and finish QC OK. Very nice razor to use for those days when you would like just a DFS IMO. Designed very similar to the Personna BBS0 or LAS BBS1 & Wolfman W2.
    Blade : Treet SS Platinum (1) milder sharp + smooth. First use in a mild razor and the it worked reasonably well. I will try the next shave with this blade in a mid range razor. Had a DFS this morning.
    Soap : Proraso green, nice scent of eucalyptus with a touch of menthol + excellent lather qualities.
    Brush : Yaqi "Mysterious space" 24mm Timberwolf knot. Excellent lather generator, luxury cloud like soft 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 : Proraso green splash with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
    Results : 1-10 dial - Copy (2)5 template 8.5.1.jpg or CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers=:[​IMG] Had a close comfortable shave this morning with my Yaqi Sentinel 1.5mm with a Treet platinum blade.
