Shave of the Week Starting 26 September 2022



Parker Variant razor

Gilletter Silver Blue blade

Shave Revolution Synthetic brush

Gillette Regular SC

Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe

Assorted A/S



Nice nice shave to start the week with, smooth/comfortable/effective, it's what we're all looking for I think. All the parts worked well together and my face is happy. The Gillette SC is very nice too, lathers easily with good glide/protection with a clean/soapy scent (to me). Now go enjoy your day folks. BTW, missed last week cuz had the opportunity to visit relatives I hadn't seen for over 10 years but it was very very short notice so off I went. It was a great trip.

For today's shave, being that's it's both Micromatic Monday and Single-Edge September, I went with a beautiful gold Gem Micromatic. This is one of my favorite single-edge razors and is always fun to use.

As I often do, I started with an alway enjoyable face wash with P.A.A's Cube 2.0. The feel of washing with this soap is unlike any other. The cleansing quality is great and the residual slickness boosts the slickness of any shaving soap you might use after.

I did a four-pass shave with the D.S.S 2017 (A&F Fierce) soap with a forth use Gem PTFE blade and ended up with a super sweet bbs shave.

I followed up with my ritual use of P.A.A's Alum block, some Dickinson's Witch Hazel and then some matching D.S.S. 2017 aftershave.

I'm a huge fan of this scent and can share with you that if you're interested, you can find this very same soap sold from Stirling Soap Company nowadays as Light-Ish Red.


Rock on gentlemen, and enjoy your shave.
