Brush and soap:
Yaqi R1605-S Tuxedo and Chiseled Face Cryogen:
To try the new box the Yaqi R1605-S Tuxedo loaded with the Chiseled Face Cryogen. Nice foam with it, which provided smooth and good fat foam. Chiseled Face still manages to stir an overdose of menthol into their soap. If this doesn't clear up in the morning, you've been behaving like a beast the night before...
Blade and razor:
The Personna - Lab Blue for the 2nd time used.
The Personna - Lab Blue was taken to a higher level than I was used to. In the RazoRock Game Changer 0.84-P the Personna - Lab Blue is for me as good as a Kai in an average razor. Excellent to shave with. Nice smooth result.
Result: BBS.
Last but not least: The Cryogen feeling a bit boosted with the Kremlon Ice Cream eau de cologne. After that some care with the neutral Vivo Per Lei Hyacinth Hand & Body Lotion was in place. Since I do not yet have a very good menthol edp, the Loris E-048 Cool Water was allowed to give some last freshness. Heavier ones were out of place here.
The Cryogen is again good for 2 summers freshness.
 
Today was a little busier than planned... so there had to be a rest point somewhere. That was in the bathroom today. A very close shave with a razor of which I can't figure out the maker... logo looks like a nobleman... no name or anything else. Anyway the shaves I have with it are always phenomenal.

Turkish thursday
I read somewhere that the more is rebranded derby shaving soap. It doesn't smell like arko. It smelled more like a general purpose cleaner. You use to clean your kitchen tiles. So my kitchen smelled refreshed.

Yesterday I honed the rameau on a piece of thuringer. It felt more keen, but I also had more alum and as sting.
