Sunday Schick shave, June 11th, 2023

Razor : Schick i2 injector with hydro magic-Mfg 1954-57, mild to tame mid range, well built and has the hydro magic feature for easy razor cleaning after a shave. This little razor works well for my shaving needs and very enjoyable quick shaving because of clean up is minimal .
Blade : Personna SS PTFE(10) sharp and smooth with excellent longevity. Very economic blade to purchase if that is what your keen on IMO.
Soap : Ach Brito Lavada cream, nice lavender fresh mint scent with excellent lather qualities.
Brush : Yaqi "Goblin" 24mm synthetic, excellent lather generator, cloud like soft tips, nice splay scrubber + great 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 : Ach Brito Lavanda AS with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
Results :
