Brush and soap:
Rod Neep Silvertip extra dense LE 2014 #07/12 Shasoc and Stirling Margaritas in the Arctic:
Using the Rod Neep Silvertip extra dense LE 2014 #07/12 Shasoc in the box Stirling Margaritas in the Arctic whipped up lather, as this soap is running on its last. So the box can easily be used for foaming. Nice brush full of refreshingly firm lather.
Blade and razor:
Used the Lutz Multi-Sharp Super Stainless for the 5th time.
The Lutz Multi-Sharp Super Stainless still did a nice job, but noticeably less than the previous turns. The Dscosmetic T7 316L SS titanium handle is a very easy razor, so it's funny that the Lutz Multi-Sharp Super Stainless feels a bit less in it. Tomorrow another shave, but that will be it.
Result: BBS.
Finally: a good cooling down with Pitralon Polar, Prep Skin Protective Crème and Loris E-048 Cool Water. I can face the day cool again.

Ach Brito Lavender Eau de Cologne.

Brush and soap:
J&T® Marble Wood APShaveCo SynBad and Lavanda:
Lavanda is best stuff to start the day with. Whipped up with the J&T® Marble Wood APShaveCo SynBad, a nice firm brush, which mimics badger in terms of softness, but has the backbone of a firm syntheet, a rich lather emerges, fragrant and full of lavender. So a nice lather to shave.
Razor and blade:
The Lutz Multi-Sharp Super Stainless used for the 6th time.
The Lutz Multi-Sharp Super Stainless still has a nice shaving result, but that was it with some effort smooth, so piggy bank. The combination Gillette Tech Fat Handle with this Lutz Multi-Sharp Super Stainless was not very effective, so that was it for the Lutz. Smooth, but could be better.
Result: BBS.
Finally: nice fragrant splash with PeReJa Lavender edc, lubrication with Cien Men Hydro Care and another solid cloud Ach Brito Lavender Eau de Cologne ensure, that I will be smelling of lavender for a while.
 
Graydog/Japanese Sugi Pine/2BED synthetic
TFS - Ginestra di Taormina
Pearl - Flexi
Voskhod (1)
Tunney

Three was too mild, but 4 delivered a pretty good shave. For an afficionado of lightweight plastic razors, the 142 grams of this thing are a bit hefty. However: this Pearl can stand its ground against the Rex Ambassador. I'd even say the Pearls knurling feels better than that of the Rex.
Positively surprised.
 
Yesterday's evening shave

Proraso white preshave
M-Keramiek scuttle
Yaqi sagrada familia pure badger
TGS smile tallow no 1
Fr Abr Herder 77
Proraso alum
Humphrey's witch hazel
Tuff sensitiv, BDF esclusivo balm

I had doubts about the edge of the Herder. Not anymore fine shave without irritations.

Brush and soap:
Semogue SOC Bristle Cherrywood and Calani Dubai:
Semogue SOC Bristle Cherrywood + Calani Dubai = Top lather!
Blade and razor:
Used the Feather Professional for the 11th time.
For a Feather Professional 11 times is nothing special, so just one more time. Effective SE shaving is an Asylum RX with the Feather Professional. This combination knows only 1 shaving angle, the right one no more no less. More is biting the boss, less is useless, right is comfortably slick as an eel!
Result: BBS.
Finally: The scent of the Middle East beautifully extended with Eyüp Sabri Tuncer Tütün, Naturlife Krem Vazelin Argan Ve Aloevera Özlü and Loris E-162 Viktor & Rolf Spicebomb. I smell like the souk in Istanbul again.
