Brush and soap:
Semogue SOC Badger Cherrywood and Stirling Grapefruit extra Menthol:
To keep the head cool in this weird time first some Prep smeared and then the Semogue SOC Badger Cherrywood loaded with Stirling Grapefruit extra Menthol. Good whipping foam, because that firmly gementholized soap does require some attention. That will get the message across when you apply it!
Blade and razor:
The Gem Personna Pfte used for the 8th x. The Gem Personna Pfte again has a nice cut. In the Gem Micromatic Bullet-tip the Gem Personna Pfte is very forgivingly stored. This SB SE scraper is a wonderfully easy razor. Just put the head nicely flat on the skin and effortlessly smooth in 3 rounds. Result BBS.
Finally: refresh and care with Eyüp Sabri Tuncer Kolonya Klasik Limon, Toco-Tholin Lavender ASB and Loris E-048 Cool Water.
Grey day to spend on weeding weeds and baking chicken legs.

Shaving Brush: Shavemac 26 mm. Fan Silvertip Badger DO1

DE-Razor: Timeless Smooth SB 0,95

The Weleda shaving cream is so old that some force was needed to get the cream out of the tube.

So I put it in the emptying program and that's no punishment because I think it's a nice smelling cream that also offers a good shaving quality.
 
Hi, haven't touched a razor for a week... so quite a few hairs grown. Head and face the same... (normally alternately)

This time an old soap, once got out of a family member's estate. Oily soap that still smells good and cared for... they didn't used to have an expiration date that days.

Anyway, the tools.

G.B. 9/9
Silvertip brush
Vintage shaving soap.
Gentlemens pride A.B..

Lovely balm with a neutral scent that's great for when you've been outside all day.

A nice weekend and enjoy the beautiful spring weather.

@Hellas how is the vintage sputnik? I have a bunch of them myself, but not used them yet.

you should give them a try. After only three shaves I find them as sharp as the actual and very similar in the feeling, although slightly harsher. Anyway
