J&T® Padoek finest 2-band badger Virginia Sheng and Le Père Lucièn - Rose de Pushkar:
In the context of brushes and soap, J&T® Padoek finest 2-band badger Virginia Sheng and Le Père Lucièn - Rose de Pushkar compare today. I can be brief about the soap: much better than the TDS, but that is reflected in the price. The smell is incomparable, but the shaving technical side is not that different. The knot of VS is just a bit slacker, than the Oumo, the J&T® Padoek is a bit more delicate, than the J&T® Zebrano, so the Zebrano just feels a bit heavier and actually is. Okay, so this morning the Padoek has a nice froth and that's a fine brush, which is more than comparable to the Semogue SOC badger. This makes the order of these good brushes pretty clear. I don't have to elaborate on the LPL soap, it's just great.
Blade and razor:
Used the Racer Super Stainless for the 4th x.
The Racer Super Stainless continues shaving nicely. The previous one had 6 average shaves, and this one goes pretty well that way. In the super light Mulcuto Schrägschnitt (plastic) the Racer Super Stainless shows its full potential. Without effort all around nice and smooth shaved.
Result: BBS.
Finally: The finish again with roses from PeReJa Rose edc, a new purchase from a Turkish Supermarket: Naturlife Krem Vazelin Gül Ve Aloevera Özlü, which is a hand and face cream with roses based on vasaline and provides a nice smooth not greasy skin. That stuff costs little, €2.49 which smells good and takes good care of the skin. Now 3 hours later the skin still feels fine. Extra scent of the Rose Fernelle Provence et Nature Edp.

J&T® Zebrano OUMO Brush SHD WT (Super High Density, White Tips) finest 2-band badger 24 mm and TDS Cosmetics Rose:
This morning again the J&T® Zebrano OUMO Brush SHD WT (Super High Density, White Tips) finest 2-band badger 24 mm compared to my other badgers. Tomorrow my Rod Neep Silvertip extra dense LE 2014 #07/12 Shasoc goes in the comparison and when I already had that ready this morning, the knot felt about as solid, as the Oumo. Now it is about the wet tips, but more about that tomorrow. In the meantime it's starting to become clear how the various brushes are keeping up. About the TDS Cosmetics Rose I can be brief, as mentioned before, too little rose scent, the chemical smell is reduced even more and the foam quality is fine. However empty=done.
Blade and razor:
Used the Racer Super Stainless for the 5th x.
The Racer Super Stainless reached my 5 norm today and will be used for the 6th time tomorrow and will be just as good as the previous Racer in number and quality of the rounds. More than enough. The Fasan Slant #42 is one of those classics where everything is just right. Good geometry, which makes the best out of the blades. No combi for starters, but once the right pressure and angle is learned, it's incorrigible and so is the combination with this Racer Super Stainless.
Result: BBS.
Finally: Predictable roses finish: PeReJa Rose edc, Naturlife Krem Vazelin Gül Ve Aloevera Özlü and Rose Fernelle Provence et Nature Edt. That Turkish cream is not a bad thing!

Pre-Shave: Prep cream
Shaving Soap / Cream: WCS Pear-Brrrr Shoppe
Aftershave: Floid Suave
Aftershave Balm: Floid
Shaving Brush: Edwin Jagger Silvertip Fibre XL
DE-Razor: Lutz slant
DE-Blade: Gillette Nacet 1x
Yesterday I skipped the shave because the skin already feels burning due to the inflamed disease of itself.
But nobody pays attention here because had I started this year with the Slant razors I forgot that great shaving Lutz. But is there anyone here who drew my attention to it no.
People have been tortured for less.
And what a lovely shaving razor with a fresh, deliciously sharp Nacet blade an ideal combination.
