Lather Catcher Sunday
Cold Water Shave
Brush: Vintage Vulfix service #3 1950's
Soap: Vintage Cussons 1950's
Razor: Kampfe Star HR-14A - Jayaruh Box #23 & handle
Blade: GEM PTFE S/S  (5)
Post shave: Cold water Rinse, Shower,  EO infused Witch Hazel 
Balm: Vintage Tabac Black
Aftershave: Tabac



A very close BBS finish today from 3 full passes, giving some indication from the Witch Hazel and aftershave.
I noticed i lost a couple of bristles from the brush, i may not have soaked it long enough as i think they snapped rather than fell out, she is getting on in years for an original knotted brush so needs a bit more tenderness when using.
Saying that, what a lovely shave, smiling from ear to ear.
Stay safe and Enjoy your day All.

After several days of experimenting, I wanted to reward myself.
My dermatitis today has had the best of the technology I have.
Each component of this setup has technical characteristics of pure excellence.
And together they are the best I own to pamper my skin.

Lather Catcher Sunday's Shave


Cold Water Rinse
Musgo Real Shave Soap
Jayaruh #2 Two-band Badger
C.V. Heljestrand
C.V. Heljestrand Wedge
CWR
Cella ASB

The Musgo Real Shave Soap face-lathered well with my Jayaruh #2 Two-band Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the C.V. Heljestrand Lather Catcher with a C.V. Heljestrand Wedge blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Cella ASB. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Better late posting than never. This is yesterday mornings shave. I used a Chick injector blade in the MMOC for the first time yesterday. I had asked around about OC injectors recently and found very few options. Then @Tony'schin posted about using an injector blade in a Micromatic. I had forgotten about wanting to try the injector bladea in a Micromatic. So after following the advice to check and recheck the alignment I was off to shaving. What a fantastic shave. Very smooth and BBS nearly everywhere. I used the Jayaruh method of face lathering by wetting my face and rubbing the Arko puck directly on to the skin. Worked perfectly. A little Thayers spash finished off a near perfect shave.

I'm not sure why tagging @Tony's chin isn't working.

I recognize that razor. It looks like it is very happy in its new home.
