I skipped my shave on Thursday because I just did not feel like it. Today, I felt like it. It was a good shave but unmentionable. I did do a video you can see here: https://youtu.be/ehmjeoxUbOk

Lather Catcher Sunday's Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Art*Razor Pleasure of Art Shaving Soap
Jayaruh #220 2-band Badger
Superior Lather Catcher
Personna GEM SS PTFE
CWR
Dickinson's Witch Hazel
Aqua Velva Blue Ice AS

The Art*Razor Pleasure of Art Shaving Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh  #220 2-band Badger brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Superior Lather Catcher and a 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 Aqua Velva Blue Ice After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
