Friday's Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Williams Mug Shave Soap
Jayaruh #425 Synthetic
Schick C Repeater
Personna Injector
Cold Water Rinse
Humphrey's Witch Hazel
Classic Old Spice After Shave

The Williams Mug Shave Soap face-lathered well with Jayaruh #425 Synthetic brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Schick C Repeater razor and the Personna Injector Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Humphrey's Witch Hazel and Classic Old Spice After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

New setup today:
Razor - Carbon Cx316 with .88+ plate, this razor is beautifully crafted and gave a very efficient 2 pass shave. That being said, for my skin, the plate might be a tad too efficient so I decided to order the .71 plate.
Blade - Nacet (Egypt first time ever using Nacet made in Egypt)
Brush - Omega Evo2
Soap & Splash - Constant via TRC is a unique and captivating scent, my teenage son actually loves it so I let him have it…very happy he’s wet shaving using the Proof SE, brush and shave soap. He has a bowl but on his own but he decided/prefers to face lather.
Everyone have a wonderful weekend!

Good evening everyone! 🌙
Morning GEM shave today, after quite some time running DE on the face — and what a comeback it was! 🔥
🪒 Razor: Blackland Sabre Ti Polished Plate 2
🔪 Blade: Accuforge GEM Stainless Coated (1st use)
📊 Shaves on this blade: 1
🖌️ Brush: Simpson Chubby 3 Best Badger
🧴 Trilogy (Soap / ASL / EDP): BBS Ostara
Excellent face feel, very slick glide, and a true BBS result with minimal effort. Ostara, inspired by Sospiro Vibrato and built on the top-tier 100% vegan Gaia 3.0 base, adds that extra touch to the scent and perfectly rounds off the shave! 🌿
Have a great evening and enjoy the rest of your day! 💈
