Friday's Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Braymore Farm Goat Milk Sandalwood Soap
Jayaruh #437
Schick M Adjustable
Supply Black Label Blade
CWR
Pinaud Citrus Musk Cologne

The Braymore Farm Goat Milk Sandalwood Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #437 Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Schick M Adjustable Razor and a Supply Black Label Blade Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Pinaud Citrus Musk Cologne. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Friday Morning Shaving Festivities

So I'm learning to use this Enders.  Haven't given up on it.  A modified unmentionable blade seems to work better in this particular model than an Injector blade.  Cella sample was my first use of this legendary soap and a load off the little sample tub produced a three pass lather.  Cudos to the Solar Flare for handling the loading and face lathering so well.  Overall not a bad shave.

Enders Safety Razor
Unmentionable Blade (Modified to SE) (2X)
Cella Shave Soap Sample
PAA Solar Flare Brush
Proraso Red Splash
LT Piver Heliotrope Blanc Aftershave Lotion

Sample Saturday Shave Salutations

Just received a sample pack from Apex Alchemy Soaps and what a BANGER.  Gren River is a trubute to a Lime Drink enjoyed around St. Patty Day in Chicago.  Light Lime scent with other citrus notes.
Very nice face feel and left a mean after rinse slickness.  The new Semogue brush whipped a wonderful three pass lather off a sample load.

STAR Razor w/ Black Bakelite Handle
GEM Personna SS PTFE Blade (2X)
Apex Alchemy Gren River Shave Soap Sample
Semogue Torga C5 Onyx Synthetic Brush
Myrsol Agua de Limon Splash
Apex Alchemy Gren River Aftershave Sample
