The Green Ray brush arrived in the post yesterday, and after a quick test hand lather it was ready to go. I did notice some dye from the knot discoloured the first lather, but after a good rinse the second lather was fine. This is a very soft synthetic knot, which is easy to splay on the face. I face lathered with this brush today and was rewarded with a wonderful thick creamy lather, and a close, comfortable shave.

A great little set up for a “pre going out with the Mrs” shave. The Sputnik and the 6S work well together and apparently I’ve passed the “you can accompany me out” test.

Have a great weekend everyone, stay safe.

Prep: Shower, Palmolive Olive Oil Soap
Soap: Figaro
Brush: 24mm Yaqi Chianti Tuxedo
Razor: Merkur 34C HD
Blade: Gillette 7 o'clock Super Stainless (2)
Post: Lidl Cien Aqua

:poop:Rubbish shave. The purple of the Chianti brush clashed horribly with the red of the Figaro tub, and the whole "blue" theme of the Aqua ASL only made matters worse. Definitely going to go back back to planning a CCS tomorrow ;)

Actually, the shave was spot-on. I find the Figaro preferable to Cella in the battle of the almond pots -by quite a way. 7 o'clock green blade on day two was faultless and the Cien Aqua gave a hit of both freshness and alcohol kick. The setup did offend my sensibilities though, and I'm now off to trawl the Yaqi site for a brush that works with my red soaps :p
 
Pre shave: PAA cube
Soap: blue devil shave company Lust
Alum block
Aftershave: stirling Black cherry
Balm: arko unscented
Bowl: Ross Giles shaving
Brush: alpha outlaw
Razor: Karve D plate
Blade: persona platinum chrome 1st use

Sat morning shave the scent was a lot better than the vegan soaps i had previously from them i would say its still on the mild side but I like it and the soap lathered really well just like the vegan ones I had very impressed .

I used the persona platinum chrome that LeeMaz sent me and was a good blade first time using one and paired really well with the Karve then finished with stirling Black cherry splash
