Sorry no photo for this one as it was a quarter to midnight shave! Had a 3 day growth and couldn't go another day (and am at work) without shaving. So a good test for the Yaqi DOC.
Pre: Bulldog face wash, cold water rinse
Soap: P&B Volupta
Brush: Yaqi Synthetic
Razor: Yaqi Black 'Mellon' head and Bulldog handle
Blade: Nacet (3)
Post: Cold water rinse, Thayers unscented Witch Hazel
AS: Old Spice

Shave went pretty well, although the light and tiredness at this hour wasn't brilliant. Blade felt a bit tuggy (don't normally find that after 3 uses) so binned afterwards - however no cuts / nicks, and my face felt pretty good and smooth after.

After the Featherweight yesterday I'd thought I'd use it's sibling, the G-Bar.
A very nice, relaxed, three pass Sunday morning shave, although the blade on only it's fourth use is finished.
I hope you enjoy your Sunday.
How would you compare G bar to 1912?

A lovely relaxing Sunday shave today. The fresh Gem in the 1912 sang beautifully and I'm as smooth as a Hebridean pebble.

Nice 3 pass shave, leaving out the under the chin ATG. My skin will thank me for it later. Barts balm is great stuff; non greasy, absorbs quickly and smells and feels lovely
