The third shave with the Henson Ti ++ loaded with a Feather blade. Today’s shave was considerably better. The shave was considerably smoother. The result was a smooth, close, BB shave. The MdC soap is on its 158th use. Have a great day and week.

MMMonday, July 10th 2023. Micromatic Monday, use any ASR razor that uses a Gem blade any day of the week!

Razor : Star bar #4 lather catcher- Mfg 1919-1929, tame mid range, well designed to last and is similar to the Gem junior bar but there are slight differences and the advantage goes to the Star brand. This is one of my favorite ASRazors with a new fresh blade. Not sure it can get much better + a decent daily driver for most folks.
Had a stellar comfortable shave this morning with my Star bar.
Blade : Gem Personna SS PTFE(1) very sharp, excellent longevity, smooths out nicely, predictable + safest blade to handle.
Soap : Razorock Irish Countryside, nice unique scented soap with some of the best lather qualities I have used.
Brush : Yaqi "Mysterious space" 24mm, 3band silvertip, excellent lather generator, luxury pillow soft tips, gentle splay scrubber + great 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 Irish Countryside AS with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
Results : 1-10 dial - Copy (2)1 10.52.1.jpg or CCS,DFS,BBs + no irritation + 1 blemmish weeper=:a17: excellent stellar comfortable shave with my Star bar #4 with a coated Gem blade. (Does not get much better than this for a close comfortable stellar shave.)

MdC Monday
July Jade Jamboree


Hello friends

Winter is still warm here, but cloudy. I decided to start the week in a simple way: MdC Original, Green Cult 2.0 plate II, Wizamet (4), Omega Jade and to finish, Pinaud Clubman Classic Vanilla.

Accompanying us, Tony Bennett.

What a shave, my dear friends!

Rating: 9,5


Have a nice week and great shaves.
