Thursday's Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
PSC Caffeinated Shave Cream
Jayaruh #445 Synthetic
Supply SE Injector
Supply Black Label Blade
Dickinson's Witch Hazel
PSC Caffeinated AS

The PSC Caffeinated Shave Cream lathered well with Jayaruh #445 Synthetic brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Supply SE Injector Razor and a Supply Black Label Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Dickinson's Witch Hazel and then PSC Caffeinated AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Schick M series razor
Personna blade
Plisson/L'Occitane brush
Seaforth SS (vintage)
Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
Grand Bay Lime Bay Rum A/S

I put 2 razors in the picture because of yesterdays not so good shave but wanted to try the injector again. The Star was on standby but wasn't needed as the injector shave went well. Not BBS but DFS. The vintage Seaforth is a gem, great lather easily made with the Plisson synthetic. Love both of those. Now go enjoy your day folks.

Razor : Schick B1
Blade: Chinese Schick
Soap: Vintage Colgate Shave stick
Brush: Ds Cosmetics Barber pole synthetic 
Post: Dickinson's Witch Hazel 
After: Aqua Velva Classic Ice Blue
Notes : My first shave with a Schick type B. The shaving angle is different than the E's ,and G's I'm used to. The shave was great! On a aggression scale of 1 to 10, My example would be 7. Loading a blade is the weak point of this razor and I can see why they went to a key later on. 3 passes bbs no irritation.
