Sun 4th SR SOTD Soap B&M Full Measure of Man Brush Yaqi 26mm Rainbow Razor ZY430 1st Use after Jnat honed Post & Aftershaves Ice Water + Stirling Witchhazel Orange Chill + Hyaluronic + B&M TFMOM Balm
The soap scent is...stout and aromatic! Lather quality is very good...rich, creamy, and slick!
This is the 1st SR that I bought but never shave-ready with my poor skills. This time, however...WOW! To feel hear & feel again, that soft whispering buttery smoothness on the edge...felt sharp but not bitey...incredible feeling!! I am still hesitant with too short a stroke, especially the atg stroke...
Sometimes if I let it flow and stroke longer...can feel the edge cuts smoother and better. Still learning and improving with each SR shave...truly enjoying the journey now...! No nicks, no weepers nor irritation for a dfs to ccs finish! Aftershaves were awesome!
^ that looks a lovely razor! Both mine are full hollow 5/8 round points from 1930s Germany. I think my next one needs to be a fuller grind, Sheffield, perhaps larger. Gotta mix it up a bit!

An enjoyable one today with the little AOS Thiers Issard 5/8..really enjoyed the MDC although it’s natural it does have a very light scent and it’s one I love, finished off with the Baxter’s not the best but decent enough ! Feeling super smooth and refreshed
Mon 5th SR SOTD Soap Arko Stick Brush Yaqi 28mm Tuxedo Razor Dorko Solingen 7/8 Near Wedge Post & Aftershaves Ice Water + Stirling Witchhazel Orange Chill + Hyaluronic + Old Spice Original
The ever-reliable soap! Nice pleasant scent, creamy and slick lather perfect for SR...
Should have been a GEM Monday but ever since my straight razors are honed up...I am like a kid just learning how to cycle...can't get enough...hahaha
The shave with this Dorko was uneventful and managed to get 3passes for a ccs to sas result without any issues within 30mins (morning workday rush). Hmmm...strangely, somehow I prefer that ZY430 yesterday...hahaha!
Aftershaves were awesome.

Bit of a late upload today.. not been the best of days but had an enjoyable shave not used the Monte Carlo in a long time but as it’s now back in the rotation I thought I’d give it a run out..very nice feeling super smooth and refreshed

Really enjoyable shave with some simple products featuring @BartsBalm sample C ! I kept the cream neutral as not to interfere with the scent..feeling super smooth and very well nourished
