Soap Stirling Pumpkin Spice
Brush Yaqi 24mm Sagrada Familia
Razor Yaqi AC Aluminum
Blade Feather Professional 3rd (felt better compare to 1st use)
Post & Aftershaves Ice Water + Stirling Witchhazel Orange Chill + Hyaluronic + Reuzel Wood & Spice
A very delicious scent from this soap. The lather is deliciously creamy, thick & very slick...enjoyed it tremendously!
Shave with razor paired with the blade was very good...again! Very smooth and comfortable for 3passes without any issues for a glass-like finish. Excellent aftershaves to top off a great session!

Post: Thayers WH Aloe
Aftershave: Gillette Cool Wave
The Shave: WTG/ATG face and WTG/XTG neck for a DFS. The GEM Featherweight is very nimble, provides great audible feedback, and is smooth; an easy shaver. Nice cream/brush combo, spent extra time really working the lather just because it was so pleasant. Have a great day.

Razor: Schick - Easy Rider L6
Blade: Schick Injector (3)

Pre-Shave: Innisfree - Jeju Volcanic Pore Cleansing Foam
Lather: Saponificio Bignoli -Mora E Muschio
Aftershave: Declaration Grooming - Yuzu/Rose/Patchouli
Schick Banana & Berries
This morning I took my banana coloured injector on a tour with the most delicious berry scented soap. I kept wanting to lick the brush. The soap wasn’t offering the residual slickness this Schick blade wanted, so I had to make sure I didn’t make more than one stroke in a particular spot without replenishing the lather.
I had a couple small nicks on my chin and neck, but overall a nice close BBS. I should mention that because of my back, I shave sitting down without the use of a mirror.
After my last couple of shaves with a GEM Contour, I can see why the ASR‘s final offering to the public could not compete with these newer injector razors.

Scuttle: Birthday gift from wife
Post: Thayers WH Aloe
Aftershave: Stirling Barbershop
The Shave: 2 WTG passes for DFS. Killed the 5 O’ Clock shadow and tried out my Birthday gift from my wife...a scuttle (Q Shave). I never used a scuttle before, it’s really cool. I whipped up the lather and it was warm, but then I essentially face lather like normal really working it in...very nice. Thought how wonderful that my wife surprised me with a cool shaving related item. Still 1 day to go, let’s see what else shows up.

Razor GEM Push Button
Blade GEM Stainless 5th
Post & Aftershaves Ice Water + Stirling Witchhazel MitA + Hyaluronic + Clubman Whiskey Woods
Somehow, today's soap lather scent was a little stronger and it was very distinctively aromatic tobacco! The lather was thickly creamy and slick too...nice!
Shave with razor paired with the blade was smooth overall until the atg pass on the upper lips area it became a bit skippy. Still, 3passes without any issues for between a dfs to ccs result. The aftershaves especially Whiskey Woods were excellent!
