Just a beautiful lather from this soap...thickly creamy and slick. The soap and aftershave scent kinda matched and is really light...This razor's edge feels really smooth and crisp...very easy to maneuver and a pleasure to shave with. 2.5passes for a ccs-sas finish...

ASRazor shave, Tuesday July19th 2022

Razor : Ever-Ready 2nd Generation Streamline -Mfg 1949-53, excellent upper mid range & designed well for it's time line, it is a heavy duty eye candy razor if you like ASR razors IMO with a Gem blade. ER Streamliner will deliver excellent shaves with a mature technique. I like to use a spent spline flattened to raise the back of blade like thicker older blades for this time line.
Blade : Gem Personna SS PTFE(6) very sharp, great longevity, smooths out nicely + predictable.
Soap : Razorock Santa Marie del Fiore, nice vanilla scent with some light tobacco scent. I like this scent more than the aftershave.
Brush : Yaqi black Marble 24mm Silvertip badger, excellent lather generator, heavenly pillow like soft tips, gentle scrubber + excellent lather painter. This brush has a beautiful spray and it is not hard to reach small areas of the face at all, I was surprized!
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 Santa Marie del Fiore + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
Results :CCS,DFS,BBs + no irritation + no weepers=:a17: Excellent shave with my Ever-ready Streamline 2nd Gen with a coated Gem blade.
