27/05/20 WILLIAMS WEDNESDAY
Pre: Face Wash Brush: Simpson Duke 2 Best Badger Soap: Williams Mug Shaving SoapRazor: Nothing to see here - Move along please Blade: Or here. Post shave: Cold water splash, EO Infused Astringent Balm: Bart's Balm Lime Balm & Lotion Aftershave: Williams Aqua Velva Musk
Toady i tried a lathering technique i saw on jayaruh (Jim) shave video. I basically rubbed the puck on my face and then built up the lather using the little Duke 2 Best Badger, it worked quite well, i had enough for the 2 passes and a bit buffing required for a BBS, comfortable finish. Very pleased about that effort. Feeling and smelling good. Stay safe and enjoy your day All.

Williams Wednesday's ShaveCold Water Rinse Williams Mug Soap Ever-Ready C-40 Ever-Ready 1914 GEM Blue Star SE CWR Pinaud Lilac Vegetal AS The Williams Mug Soap face-lathered well with my Ever-Ready C-40 Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Ever-Ready 1914 Razor with a GEM Blue Star SE blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Pinaud Lilac Vegetal AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Wednesday 27th May Simpson Milk Churn - Le Pt'I Meusien - Gillette Injector - Agua Lavande Puig Not sure which blade I used today. The injector key holds a mix of other blades rescued from broken containers so it could be either a Personna or a Proline B. This is my first use of the Gillette injector.It looks very like the original Gillette twin blade unmentionable....so I may have seen them but not recognised them for what they were. A mild but efficient razor giving a 'Face Feeler' in 3 passes

A mild but efficient razor giving a 'Face Feeler' in 3 passes I have one of those Gillette Injectors. I tried it a couple of times, it didn't seem like it was cutting much. Didn't look like it was damaged of off in any way so I don't know what up with that.

28/05/20 Pre: Face Wash Brush: DS Cosmetics synth Soap: D. R. Harris Arlington Razor: Blackland Vector Blade: Feather PB (2) Post shave: Cold water splash, Orange & Neroli infused Witch Hazel Balm: Bart's Balm Cinnamon & Patchouli Aftershave: Mäurer & Wirtz 4711 EDC A nice face lather today with the DS, I am not sure what model it is? I have been taking particular notice this week of the areas that require buffing after the initial 2 passes and today, in these areas, i slowed my pace and shortened the shave stroke, mainly on the devils whirlpools, my chin and top lip. Result BBS in 2 passes. Mind you, this is with the Vector with a 1 shave blade in it. I will see how this goes over the next week. Feeling and smelling gooood!
