Saturday Straights' Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Arko Shave Stick
Jayaruh 424 Synthetic
Russian Rocket 5/8
CWR
Lilac Vegetal

The Arko Shave Stick lathered well with the Jayaruh 424 Synthetic Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Russian Rocket 5/8 straight gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Lilac Vegetal. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
