Cella Extra Extra Bio shave
Hot towel to face application (always for me, I shower before bed, shave during the day)
Cella pre shave gel, croap and balm.
Razorock Gamechanger. 68 with HD hollow handle
Connaught Shaving premium boar brush
Astra Platinum blade 20260128_111125.jpg
Pears light rub between passes
With and against grain passes with neck and jaw, under jaw touch ups
Alum and Thayers before face balm.
I don't rate the Cella pre shave gel at all, I always use the Phoenix cube which I rate as the best pre shave soap. Cella croap is fine, needs plenty of water and has a most unusual scent that is hard to describe.
I highly rate the aftershave balm. Not watery thin, great consistency and skin absorption, very soothing and calming. It's my favorite balm

Brush: Turningz by TanZ, father & son, Oumo 25mm Pigsy boar
Software: Ariana and Evans Bhang and Lúcido
Razor: Karve Overlander Al, Project X
Blade: Barbero Platinum (3)

Great setup this morning. VR1 is still a great base and this scent is really nice. I’m glad I was able to get a couple father and son edition TanZ brushes over the years. This one has some really cool colors with great separation. The Project X Overlander shaves just as good as it looks. Have a great day folks. View attachment 1104

Hi Friends,

Here my Shave of the Day (28.01.2026)

IMG_9099.jpeg
Razor: Gillette Fat Handle Tech // Blade: Gillette yellow // Soap: Ariana & Evans Asian Pear (sample) // Brush: Ever-Ready N40 // Aftershave: Nivea Balm

A nice shave. Not BBS but just shy away from it. The sample of the soap i received is not on the photo due to visual reasons :ROFLMAO: It just came in a small sample bag which a shaving buddy had send to me. The lather was great (even I think that i have used too much water), the scent is wonderful and the skinfeel after the shave was PHENOMENAL.

8 out of 10

Have a great time, enjoy your shaves and stay safe and healthy.

Greetings
Thorsten
