This soap is really nice and the sample size makes it great for travel. Rich, creamy, slick lather with an outstanding scent...
Another awesome shave with this blade together with the excellent razor. This blade doesn't seem to degrade much. It's been a long time since I use a DE blade past the 8th. Had a very enjoyable & satisfying easy & smooth 3passes for a mostly bbs finish without any issues. The matching aftershave is just great👍!!

Another day with the Merkur 37c and a Personna Medical Prep blade. This is the 63rdnd shave with the Ethos unscented soap and the second use of the Med Prep blade. The hole in the bottom of the soap is getting larger. A perfect BBS shave. Have a good day and weekend, B&Bers.

Razor : Razorock Lupo.72 2nd generation- Mfg 2021> excellent mid range, well designed for clamping and under the nose area, quality control and finish are very high for 316 stainless steel. 316SS is not the easiest metal to machine from my experiences.
Blade : Gillette 7oClock SP(5) sharp & smooth with reasonable longevity.
Soap :Speick stick, nice mild spicy scent with excellent lather qualities. Triple milled soap + this soap lather quality texture is fantastic when bowl lathered properly IMO.
Brush : Yaqi Evil Zebra(red Zebra) 26mm synthetic:001_wub:- excellent lather generator, luxury cloud like soft tip feel, gentle 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 RR Lupo.72 with a Gillette 7oClock SP.
