Tuesday

Vulfix 660
VDH soap
G20 scuttle
Gillette NEW
Gillette 7 o/c sharp edge
Alum block
Witch hazel
Florida water

Gillette New Long Comb
Personna Med Prep
Kent Blk8 (use for creams)
Lea Sandalwood cream (a first for me on this, easy lather, heavy menthol, saved a little time this morning on the prep)
GFT Sandalwood skin food

Prep - Shower / Woods Of Windsor Cedar Woods soap / Pre-lather / 3 min steam
Razor - GEM Micromatic Clog Pruf
Blade - GEM Personna SS (#6)
Brush - Omega 20106
Soap - Arko / Proraso Green / Glycerine
After - Frozen towel / Alum & WH Mix
Result - BBS+++++++++

After my last shave's New LC / Personna Chrome disaster, this was a complete turnaround.
The GEM Micromatic Clog Pruf is new to me, arriving yesterday in fact. In anticipation, I had left my whiskers for five days and the result is The Shawshank Redemption of shaves. My face was never this smooth before puberty!! I can barely see stubble in my 10x mirror.
This may give my 1912 some serious competition - I love everything about this razor! It's my sixth SE but it certainly won't be my last! Big shout out for the blades too, they are unbelievable!

Great photos, everyone! Have a wonderful Tuesday!
