Menthol Monday's Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Eskimo Tuxedo Shave Soap
Jayaruh #447 Synthetic
Supply SE Injector
Supply Black Label Blade
CWR
Humphrey's Witch Hazel
Osage Rub

The Eskimo Tuxedo Shave Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #447 Synthetic Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Supply SE Injectorr and a Supply Black Label Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Humphrey's Witch Hazel and then Osage Rub. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Monday Morning MicroMatic Mania

To me the Bullet Tip is a Mild Razor.  Paired with the fresh TREET Blade it performed well.
Of course, SV slickness is legendary and that also helped.

Tuesday Morning's Terrific Tonsure

One really great shave.  I think my technique is improving with all the SE Razors.  This pretty little VC1 did a BANGER job with a second use GEM PTFE blade.

Wednesday Morning Wicked Walkabout

Third shave on the Empire and third on the blade.  I must say this razor is dialed in - just the right blade exposure for a perfect shave.  Short strokes, a light touch and the Empire whizzed around my face.
