SE Sun 2nd SOTD
Soap The Goodfellas Smile Chronos
Brush Yaqi 24mm Sagrada Familia
Razor Yaqi AC on RR BarberPole Handle (with an o-ring washer)
Blade Shick Proline P-30 (US) 3rd
Post & Aftershaves Ice Water + Stirling Witchhazel Orange Chill + Hyaluronic + TGS Chronos
Awesome lather from the soap. Pleasant scent plus a thickly creamy and slick lather...
Tried using the AC razor with the RazoRock Stainless Handle and tightened further with an o-ring washer and paired with the blade was so much better. Very smooth and comfortable for 3passes without any issues for a mostly bbs finish. Excellent aftershaves capped off an enjoyable session.

Grandpa shaved with a now pitted Gillette open comb which lawnmower I only use to remove body hairFor a while I have been posting "Every Sunday is A Vector Sunday", but then I realized it didn't make much sense, as for me every day is a Vector day... so, I'm now going with Every Sunday is a Triple Milled Sunday instead.
Join me if you like that traditional "like grandpa used to shave" feeling on your Sundays!
(I realize grandpa couldn't possibly have a synthetic brush, so you don't have to bring that up!)

Occams Oren with a 3 dot plate and a Kai protouch
Going to need to use more serious blades so far it gives a dfs and that is it. With the 3dot plate it does give some woes atg in the neck. Blade could be getting dull.
Soap was wickham 1912 club cola which smells like you guessed it nice soap.
A Yaqi cola for the punn which did its job gentle. Not much backbone but it does not want to splay yet either.
The Yaqi copy of a pereira bowl was the complementary vessel
And finishing of with some proraso green asb
Hmmm now should I walk back to the bathroom to slather some veg…… still smell garlicky since yesterday’s garlic steak asparagus pommes gratin.. which overpowers which?
