1912 GEM GEM Blade (4) Vulfix # 1 Boar VDH Pink Soap WH English Leather AS
Good shave, but limited it to 2 passes as blade started to tug. Time to change it I guess.

- Prep: Noxzema Skin Cream & Hot Towel
- Brush: C&E BBB
- Soap: P C Nag Champa
- Razor: '48 Eversharp-Schick G1 Injector
- Blade: Ted Pella PTFE coated GEM injector (shave 3)
- Oil Pass: Leisureguy's Last-Pass Shave Oil
- A/S: Thayer's Lavender Witch Hazel Toner & Clubman Club Complete ASB
- EDT: SCS Aspect EDT
- Result: A wonderful BBS shave as usual with the injector. Did have a slight problem with the 1st pass lather. Not enough water for the face lather. Only a few strokes and I realized it. So just dipped the ends of the brush in some water and rubbed the brush over my face and voila a great face lather. More than enough lather for the rest of my shave.
