Friday's Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Colgate Mug Shaving Soap
Jayaruh #395 Two-band Badger
JiFULI Double Edge Razor
JiFULI Platinum Edge DE Blade
Cold Water Rinse
Humphrey's Witch Hazel
Florida Water

The Colgate Mug Shaving Soap face-lathered well with Jayaruh #395 Two-band Badger. Two passes and touch ups with the JiFULI Double Edge Razor and the JiFULI Platinum Edge DE Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Humphrey's Witch Hazel and Florida Water. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
 
Friday morning:

Hot shower
Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Super Speed/Perma Sharp day 9
B&M Spice SS
Lubriderm Moisturizer
Stirling Spice EdT

Today I had the urge to smell the Shulton Old Spice scent that I love so much and since I can’t find my bowl and two refill backup pucks I went with something that’s such a perfect substitute. Will really nailed it with this Spice soap - the scent is EXACTLY like the Shulton one - not only that, the lather is sumptuous, the slickness is awesome, and the postshave feeling is wonderful. After I finished shaving I rubbed the leftover lather from the brush into my face so I could enjoy that delightful scent some more and then I rinsed it off with cold water. The Lubriderm moisturizer felt so soothing, and the Stirling Spice fragrance can also win a top prize for matching the Shulton Old Spice. Three slow, enjoyable passes gave me a brilliant BBS shave - wowwwwwwww!!!!!!!

Wishing you all a great weekend - be well and stay safe!

Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Wonderful shave with which to close out the workweek! Returned to RazoRock and their excellent AdP homage, "Gold Label" shave soap. Excellent scent with a super thick and slick lather built with the Simpson badger brush for three passes with the Karve and I finished with alum, followed by Acqua di Parma Colonia aftershave balm and EdC.

BBS bliss!!

Hope you have a great day. :)

RazoRock / Simpson / Karve / Wizamet / Acqua di Parma

Great shave,,Lantzman! I have a love/hate relationship with Cella. I love it and my wife hates the smell of it. I ended up giving it away. 😮‍💨
Todah rabah Lantzman! I don’t think I would reach for Cella in the summer but I’m really liking it right now. In fact I’m going to use it exclusively for the rest of the month.
