Friday's Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Van Der Hagen Luxury Shave Soap
Jayaruh #446 Badger/Boar
J.A. Henckels Rapide
J.A. Henckels wedge
CWR
Dickinson's Witch Hazel
Aqua Velva Iced Blue AS

The Van Der Hagen Luxury Shave Soap lathered well with Jayaruh #446 Badger/Boar brush. Two passes and touch ups with the J.A. Henckels Rapide Razor and a J.A. Henckels wedge blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Dickinson's Witch Hazel and then Aqua Velva Iced Blue AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

 

Friday morning:

Capra soap as a facial wash
Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Junjie/Astra Green day 5
MSC Vintage Spice SS
Aveeno Moisturizer
MSC Vintage Spice AS Splash

Thanks to my dear brother Fernando as well as a very fine gentleman in this group I had such a wonderful three pass BBS shave that was so much fun - the Vintage Spice soap and aftershave are the perfect substitutes for the discontinued Shulton Old Spice. The soap’s tallow formula gives it such fantastic lather that’s so thick, rich, mega slick as well as protective, the scent is so gorgeous - it’s bang on to the Shulton Old Spice, and the skincare is perfect. The Aveeno moisturizer is unscented so it works great as a balm, and the Vintage Spice aftershave is witch hazel based so it never stings or burns. This Canadian Tech is a mild razor but it performs like a champ - the gentleman who sent it to me knows who he is. Ευχαριστώ πολύ φίλε μου - το εκτιμώ!

Have a great weekend - be well and stay safe!
