Brush and soap:
Plisson Fibre and The Dutch Barbershop Herbal Grinded Lemon:
Nice smooth simple turn this morning. The Plisson Fibre turns The Dutch Barbershop Herbal Grinded Lemon into a nice fat foam. Soak it in the bowl and then shave the head.
Blade and razor:
The Personna Pfte Injector for the 7th x used.
The Personna Pfte Injector is slightly tapered. There are 7 full shaves on paper, but every now and then I grabbed this razor to make the skull nice and smooth, therefore the blade has done more, but this one is ready for me now. Such a Schick L series is just a great thing to shave with, simple and light. With the Personna Pfte Injector blade in it's a smooth razorr, with which you can't do anything wrong.
Result: BBS.
Finally: refreshing the citrus with the Eyüp Sabri Tuncer Kolonya Klasik Limon, with the Weleda Aftershave Balsam feeding the skin again and with the Loris E-048 Cool Water nicely fresh yet firmly scented.
 
Yaqi 26mm Timberwolf
Pereira bowl
Lider Classic cream
I. Boland Liége 46 1/4
Osma alum
DVH asb
SIR 4711 Irish Moos (vintage bottle)

First shave of the year. First time with the Lider too. This Polish cream lathers up easily. Can take quite some water. The scent is a fresh citrus one. It’s not the mosquito repellent type of citrus like Arko, but more of a freshly pressed lemon. It reminds me of dishwashing soap somewhat...
Post shave is ok. Got three passes out of 1,5 cm of cream. All in all a nice cream but not really special.
Not a bad shave at all topped of with my recent find of the 70ies early 80ies Irish Moos. Classic smell.

Mama Bears - Bonsai
Timeless 0,95 Smooth Bar
Timor (1)
Humprey’s Astringent
Myrsol Don Miguel 1919 + Emulsion

Both the Timeless and the Timor are great products. But combined it felt very rough on the skin. And applying the aftershave was very sensitive.

Brush and soap:
J&T® Marble Wood APShaveCo SynBad and Dusy Kabinett:
Nice roses again this morning. I used to like the firm male scents, but I'm starting to enjoy more and more beautiful and full floral scents. So it was a pleasure to be stirring the Dusy Kabinett with J&T® Marble Wood APShaveCo SynBad. This old-fashioned professional soap, the successor to Klar Kabinett, is not full of the rose scent, but has a very discreet yet clear scent. Its good foaming and greasing properties make it a pleasure to use again.
Blade and razor:
The Gillette Nacet Stainless (China) for the 1st x used.
A fresh Gillette Nacet Stainless (China) also contributes to this pleasure. Although not a top blade, it is one that shaves well. The combination RazoRock Game Changer 0.84-P with the Gillette Nacet Stainless (China) makes that I couldn't get away from that mirror.
Result: BBS.
Last but not least: To get the whole thing smoothed again with PeReJa Rose edc, then some Rose of Bulgaria AS and rubbed with Regina Floris Rose Oil of Bulgaria ASG. With a puff Rose Fernelle Provence et Nature the fragrance is again well captured. For now I smell like roses and have a smooth head.

Yesterday's shave

M-keramiek scuttle
Semogue boar brush
Haslinger schafsmilch
L Pelleray frameback
Pradat brun
Thayer's witch hazel
Vdh alum
Swiss pitralon, isana ultrasensitive balsem

Misserable shave. The Pelleray lacked sharpness and smoothness. Finished the shave with the pradat.

Today's shave

Prep
M-keramiek scuttle
Yaqi badger
Ruba 42 garantie Paris
L. Pelleray frameback
Cachet dus tabac de Maigret
Dickinson witch hazel
Vdh alum
Clubman pinaud as, isana ultrasensitive balsem

Rehoned the Pelleray. It was now ok, but a full shave has to confirm that.
For the rest the shave was ok.
