Razor: Valet Autostrop C1 Canadain variant-Mfg 1920's- different type of shave with this oldie Goldie. Blade: Gem Personna SS PTFE(10) excellent blade but it needs to be replaced after 10 shaves. Soap: Razorock XXX - great scent and excellent lather qualities. Pre shave: Brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser + a dollop of Clear Aloe Vera gel on beard area. Prep: Cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pickups. WTG + ATG + lots of pickups. Post shave: Razorock XXX with witch hazel + Nivea balm. Results: CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers = Ok shave with my Valet Auto-strop C1 Canadian version.

10/8: Found a can of shave gel in son’s bathroom. Thought I would try it w the Schick L that feels “sticky” w my usual lather. Result: still sticky, but less so. Got BBS but not enjoyable. I may retire the L type from my rotation
