Ascension Select vs SS from PAA, which razor is right for you? (ft. Aqua D/G by PAA)

Which Ascension razor comes out on top? 🤔 In today’s video, I’m putting the Phoenix Shaving Ascension Select and the Ascension Stainless Steel head-to-head to see how they compare! For this shave, I’m also using the Aqua D/G -inspired shaving soap and aftershave splash from ‪@DouglasSmythe‬ to complete the setup. 🌊☀️ ⚠️ Heads up! These summer scents are going away until next season on Friday, September 4th, so if you’ve been thinking about grabbing one, now is the time!
