Friday's Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Colgate Shaving Mug Soap
Jayaruh #434 Synthetic
English Ever-Ready
Personna GEM SS PTFE
CWR
Granddad's Blend After Shave

The Colgate Shaving Mug Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #434 Synthetic brush. Two passes and touch ups with the English Ever-Ready Razor and a Personna GEM SS PTFE Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Granddad's Blend After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Shave 37 with the Bunny V2.2 and shave 30 with the Personna 74 loaded. This blade just keeps on going. And it doesn't seem to be slowing down at all.

Shave of the Week (maybe) Starting 10 July 2023

Gem Featherweight razor
Gem Super Stainless blade
AP Shave Co synthetic brush
Seaforth! Sea Spice Lime SS
Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
Seaforth! Sea Spice Lime A/S Tonic

Like the way the Seaforth! SS works but this scent is not my favorite. And I have 2 of them, why did I do that? But I do like the A/S Tonic, it works great and smells a bit different than the SS. First time out with the Featherweight in far to long. It is very light but gave me a fine shave. And new Gem Super Stainless blades are SHARP! All is well though and my face is happy. Now go enjoy your day folks.
