Pearl Harbor Day shave

F1548D35-D08E-4286-B56A-50661BBF0597.jpeg


Prep: Neutrogena Razor Defense face scrub
Soap: Saponificio Varesino 70th Anniversary sample
Brush: Zenith boar
Razor: Wilkinson Sword TTO, shave #10
Blade: Voskhod (#5)
Post: Alum -> hyaluronic acid-> Pinaud Clubman Classic Vanilla aftershave

A mostly steep-angled, two-pass DFS again tonight. I could probably get another shave out of the Voskhod, but I'm noticing some razor bumps on my neck. The usual place I get them, but I haven't had them in a while. Not sure if it's the razor, the blade, or the new pattern I was trying, but will try to correct by going back to Astra SP and my previous pattern to see if I can't clear it up.

Ice Water + Thayers
Hyaluronic + Reuzel Wood & Spice
Nice lather from the soap. The scent was mild but the quality was thick, creamy, and slick.👍
Shave with this GEM paired with the blade was so much more comfortable compare to my other GEMs. Very smooth too. Especially for under the nose. 3 multiple passes for a bbs to DFS result at the expense of 1 weeper. Satisfying post & aftershaves.
Rating today 9.5/10
A very beautiful & enjoyable vintage razor!!

Greetings,

Early morning shave,

The Maca Root cream provided me with a superb slick protective lather, people have a love/hate opinion on it scent, which doesn't get top marks which i agree but it's residual slickness protection ,shaving performance, & post shave feel are all superb. One of my favourite shaving creams.

A enjoyable 3 pass + pick ups close comfortable /near BBS shave with no errors to report...Finishing to the shave off with a small dollop of Morrisons ~Intensive moisture lotion.

My face is feeling super smooth & smelling divine.;)

Stay safe, and enjoy your Day ladies & gentlemen.😎
