SE SOTD, December 2nd 2022

Razor : Yaqi SE Excalibur 50mm- Mfg 2021>, tame mid range, simple clamping system, small head parts, this razor works well for myself and is defiantly one of my favorites. I get stellar shaves with the Yaqi Excalibur and very enjoyable to use.
Blade : Schick Proline p30, sharp & smooth with reasonable longevity for a AC blade, pairs well with my Excalibur.
Soap : Razorock Irish Country side- unique scent(Irish Creed?) with excellent lather qualities.
Brush : Yaqi "Rainbow" 26mm brown whiskers synthetic- excellent lather generator, heavenly cloud like soft tips, nice splay scrubber + excellent lather painter.
Pre shave : (Dedicated Cashmere synthetic)Brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser with a dollop of clear Aloe Vera on the cleaned beard area.
Prep : Cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pickups. WTG + ATG + pickups.
Post shave : Razorock Irish Country side splash with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
Results : CCS,DFS,BBs + no irritation + no weepers= Excellent shave with my Yaqi Excalibur 50mm with a Schick proline p30 blade.

Have some great shaves!
