Colonial General + Feather Pro + M&F 2xl + Blu + Chat Lux Salve

Razor: Woflman WR1 0.67mm DC on WRH7
Blade: GSB (1)
Soap: Shannon's Amaretto
Aftershave: Stirling Tea Tree
Brush: Paladin Chief 26mm Horn

Thoughts: Glad that I did not get too ambitious with the choice of blade gap on my Wolfman. I feel that 0.67mm is the "closest without going over" - a nice feel that did not seem overly dangerous. I went XTG with the open comb side (ATG was not comfortable with open comb), and ATG clean up with the solid bar side (very comfortable). Great efficiency, and currently my most maneuverable razor between my nose and upper lip.

WTG-XTG-ATG (adjusted angles for my beard)

Proraso White Tub today. 20 seconds to load the Plisson Badger brush. Easy, thick, slick, lather. Vintage Gillette Platinum-Plus still in the Gillette Fat Boy. Excellent smooth, close, shave. I finished with Country Club Frozen Vetiver aftershave.

Van Yulay Day
I used every VY product I own, with great results. Ylang-ylang is one of my favorite scents - I love the freshness of it. Clarity has some of that and it pairs well with the balm, which adds some citrusy Yuzu. Both are good to my skin.
