Cella Red
April 27, 2024 Saturday shave
Razor: Karve Overlander, aluminum
Blade: Personna Lab Blue (3)
Soap: Cella red
Brush: Yaqi 24mm Silvertip badger
Bowl: Captain's Choice Heavyweight copper
Post shave: Omega alum block, Thayer's Witch Hazel
Aftershave: Old Spice Original
The headliner today was the first use of a "real" badger brush, a Yaqi 24mm Silvertip badger. It was a good first run, and it will likely evolve to the better as it breaks in.
I think the new brush soaked up some of the lubricating components of the lather, it wasn't as slick as usual. More usage should resolve that issue.
Even though the Cella lather wasn't perfect, due to the brush, it was good enough for a terrific shave!
This was a three pass shave; no weepers, etc. and no irritation. The Personna Lab Blue and Overlander combination is proving to be quite good.
Enjoy your day!
