Williams Wednesday's Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Williams Mug Shave Soap
Jayaruh #425 Synthetic
Schick J3 Golden 500
Personna Injector Blade
CWR
Humphrey's Witch Hazel
Brute After Shave

I started with the cold water rinse. The Williams lathered well with the Jayaruh #425. I did two passes with the Schick J3 Golden 500 razor with a Personna injector blade. After a cold water rinse, I finished with Humphrey's Witch Hazel and Brute Classic After Shave. I am now clean, smooth, and refreshed.
