Comments	I have been traveling for a few days, so this is the first day I am back to my home rotation instead of my travel setup. This is the 79th and final shave with Ethos Lavender. Today’s brush the oldest brush I own: a Hoffritz badger. It is a small brush but is a great performer. The Feather-Feather combination is on its 6th shave. My usual four-pass shave resulted in a nice, smooth BBS shave. Today the aftershave was Thayers followed by Ethos Skinfood. Have a great day folks.

Razor : Razorock Wunderbar slant- Mfg 2017> excellent upper mid range, machining of the head is perfect, you should shave with a steep approach because of very curved of head, I like to use. I get great close shaves with this razor+ experimenting with a 75mm handle(3 inch)length today with very excellent results .
Blade : Gillette 7oClock super platinum(1) excellent blade, sharp & smoooth on first use, one of my favorites.
Soap : Yaqi Green, a new soap formulated by Master soap creations South Africa for Yaqi, nice mild citrus wood scent with excellent lather qualities.
Brush : Yaqi 24mm dandelion synthetic, excellent lather creator, heavenly cloud like soft tips, gentle scrub + excellent 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 : Yaqi Green AS with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless),
Results :CCS,DFS,BBs + no irritation + no weepers= excellent shave with my RR Wunderbar slant with a Gillette 7oClock SP.
