Halloween SOTD … and New Brush Day!

Had an awesome shave today. Slim on 9. Fougere Gothique. The Holy Black Vampire Hunter. Super scary stuff!

Used my new Rudy Vey STF brush that I won in the St Sue Auction for the first time. It’s an interesting brush. I did a full review in my shave journal if you care to read it.

Schick Sunday Shave, Oct 30th, 2022

Razor : Stick Schick, L type theme series- Mfg 1973- mild range, interesting razor and it is very comfortable to shave with + and a joy to use.
Blade : Schick Personna injector SS PTFE(9) very sharp, excellent longevity, smooths out nicely + predictable.
Soap : Mitchell's wool fat, nice mild scent when dry but when lathered the scent increases, all I do is cut a few slivers with my pocket knife and press in bowl and with a squeezed brush(2 flicks will do)start the lathering looking for a paste to form and then add some hand water drops or a spray mister keep stirring and add some droplets of water & stir...... until your happy 1-2 minutes later it is ready. The secret to this soap is not to over whelm it with water at first or you will just chase it IMO. Apply to a wet face. Synthetic brushes work excellent also with this hard triple milled soap like shown.
Brush : Yaqi Moka express 24mm synthetic, excellent lather generator, heavenly cloud like soft tips, gentle 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 blue barber with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
Results :CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers=:a17: excellent shave with my Stick Schick injector with a Personna coated blade.

Couldn't let October get away without a little Tabac action.

34C/Astra SP
Lucite Made-Rite handle with a TGN Finest knot
G5 scuttle
RazoRock Tobacco #1 (old sample given to me in a B&B transaction a few years ago)
Tabac Eau de Cologne

Very good lather, tough the scent has faded a bit. The Tabac is obviously a good match for the soap.
