Brush - Semogue SOC TAJ Boar
Soap - Williams Mug Shaving Soap

Blade - GEM PTFE S/S (2)
Post - Cold water Rinse, TC's infused Witch Hazel
Balm - Baxter's / Argan Oil home mixed Balm
A/S - Williams Aqua Velva Formula One
The lather started off a bit thin today, either too much water left in the brush or not enough loading, i revisited the soap to reload and all went well after that.
It is always a pleasure to use this wonderful shaving tool and today was no exception, 2 passes WTG then ATG for a close BBS finish.
I always found the Baxter's balm a bit "sticky" on its own so mixed it with some Argan oil about 75 Baxter's/25 Argan ratio, not a lot needed, however, it does sink in much more quickly.
A nice splash of the Williams splash which for me seems like a real skin food and i am done.
Very nice.
Stay safe and enjoy your day All.

Williams Wednesday's Shave
Cold Water Rinse
Williams Mug Soap
SlimGem Synthetic
Taipan 3D SE Razor
Personna GEM SS PTFE
CWR
Mennen Skin Bracer AS
The Williams Mug Soap lathered well with the SlimGem Synthetic Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Taipan 3D SE Razor with a Personna GEM SS PTFE Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Mennen Skin Bracer AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Williams Wednesday with vintage Williams, Aqua Velva and a Pal adjustable. It was a quick and easy shave.
Also be sure to check out the latest update on the PIF I'm running. Here is a link.

Pre - Shower
Brush - Simpson Wee Scot
Soap - Lea Stick
Razor - Colonial General V2
Blade - Feather Pro Blade (7)
Post - Cold water Rinse, TC's infused Witch Hazel
Balm - Baxter's / Argan Oil home mixed Balm
A/S - Copycat Executive
The Little Simpson never ceases to amaze me! A brilliant little brush.
Again using the stick crayon style covering the chin, dipping the tips and working it around the face, continue until you have the consistency you want. I had plenty of lovely lather on the chin and the brush was holding quite a bit for the second pass.
2 easy, very comfortable passes for an easy face feeler.
Its been a while since i used the copycat scents, this one still smells really good.
Stay safe and enjoy your day all.
