Soap Stirling Orange Chill
Brush Yaqi 26mm Orange Black Synthetic
Razor Gillette Red Tip A3
Blade Gillette London Bridge 3rd
Post & Aftershave
Ice Water + Special Thayers Mix
Hyaluronic + Aqua Velva Musk
Awesome lather from the soap. Sprite orangy scent & cooling sensation. Creamily thick and slick too....
Shave with razor paired with blade was mild so the 3+1passes was smooth and comfortable for a between bbs & dfs result but because razor is too mild, suffer some weepers for overshaving. Great post & aftershaves.

It's been a while since i lasted used the Russian made Rapira Swedish Supersteel which i find smooth efficient enough paired together excellently with the Chinese super-speed clone.

A comfortable 3 pass + pick ups DFS/Near BBS shave with no errors to report.

Finishing to the shave off with a generous dollop of Aloe Vera Gel.

Schick J3-Golden 500
Schick S/S- Chick [ 5 ]
P & B Spitfire A/S Splash

A really good start to this Shaving Week with this Razor, which in the past I have likened to a Magic Wand. It is not at all aggressive but extremely efficient but forgiving, it is so easy without hassle to get an ultra close finish that rivals the best I get its other Vintage /Modern SE Razors. I think it is my best long handled Injector confined to the use of a single blade.

It's interesting that you find the Red Tip mild. Allegedly, it's the most assertive of them.
