I have just completed 3 consecutive Shaves with The Enoch on board. The Shaves are smooth and trouble free, and I am getting a consistently good all round finish, that I was so far not getting with the other blades I have used.

Wednesday

Valobra stick
Kent Infinty synth
Face lather
Gillette aluminium Tech (1967)
Supermax Blue Diamond (1)
Thayer's Lavender and Aloe Vera
Fine American Blend after shave

Coincidentally with it being the first of the month, I found myself using the first ever vintage razor I bought. A lovely smooth shave ensued. The Valobra is a great soap and I have a nice post-shave feel. I like the American Blend too; I read somewhere that it's allegedly based on (or inspired by) Rive Gauche by YSL. Anyway, it lasts quite long for an after shave.

Wed 1st SOTD
Soap RazoRock XXX
Bowl Red Nubs
Brush Yaqi 26mm Rainbow
Razor Gillette Slim Setting 9 & 7
Blade Polsilver Super Iridium 4th
Post & Aftershave
Ice Water + Special Thayers Mix
Hyaluronic + Aqua Velva Musk
Re-used again leftover soap in the nubs bowl from yesterday. Added some warm water...let it soak. Just a few swirl of the brush turns it into amazing creamy lather. Mild mild scent. Super nice application to face by brush. Added more water and became a nicely hydrated cushiony creaminess.
Shave with razor paired with blade was comfortable and smooth. Sharpish and no tuggings nor skipping. Clean cuts. 3+1 multiple passes with max setting 9 to 7. No weepers nor irritation especially on neck and under jawline. A really smooth shave. Not as efficient though. Between BBS to DFS results. Rating 9.5/10.
