A.S.Razor shave, July 27th, 2021

Razor: Star bar #4 model- Mfg 1920, excellent mid range, well built for that Era, I just get great shaves with it.
Blade: Gem Personna SS PTFE(5) excellent blade, Very sharp, great longevity, smooths out nicely, predictable.
Soap: Ach Brito Lavanda cream(New), mild scent of lavender with great lather qualities.
Brush: Yaqi Dandi lion 24mm Cashmere knot- excellent lather generator, heavenly cloud like soft tips, mild scrub + great lather painter.
Pre shave: Brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser + a dollop of clear Aloe Vera Gel on the cleaned beard area.
Prep: Cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pickups. WTG + ATG + pickups.
Post shave: witch hazel + Ach Brito Lavada cologne AS(New) + a dollop of Nivea balm + 2 drops of HA.
Results: CCS, DFS, BBS + no irritation + no weepers = excellent shave with my Star bar(Kampfe brothers Brooklyn NY) with a Gem coated blade.
