Thursday's Shave
[Image: cws.png]

Cold Water Rinse
Palmolive Shaving Cream
Ever-Ready C-40
Ever-Ready 1914
GEM Blue Star SE
CWR
Pinaud Lilac Vegetal AS

The Palmolive Shaving Cream 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...

Pre: Face Wash
Brush: DS Cosmetics synth
Soap: D. R. Harris Arlington

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!

Stay Safe and Enjoy your day All

Used my SHaDE razor this morning with a soap that is a couple unscented ones that I melted together and added some essential oils to make a little better.  The Badger Van der Hagen brush performed well and some English Leather Lime for the finish has me off to my home office.  Enjoy your day!

I like your SHaDE razor. I love the one I made from a Russian DE OC razor.
