Menthol Monday's Shave

C.O. Bigelow
GarnerPW IX
Pal Injectomatic
Personna
CWR
Thayer's Lemon WH
Speick

I will be using injectors this week along with my new Garner PW IX brush.

I started off with Proraso Pre Shave. The C.O. Bigelow Shaving Cream face-lathered well with the GarnerPW IX synthetic brush. I did two passes with the Pal Injectomatic injector razor and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Thayer's Lemon WH and then Speick AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Anniversary Shave
Today is 18 years for us, but it doesn't seem that long. We are right for each other.
The shave was superb.

 

Prep: Hot towel
Pre shave: Prep
Razor: Sensor Excel
Blade: N/A
Brush: Rough,No Name Boar
Soap: Through the Fire Fine Craft: Brokkr
Post: Cold water rinse / Witch Hazel / ASB sample..

I'd forgotten how wonderful Brokkr really is.. nuff said really, eh?

 

This was a perfect shave with a monstrous freeze from the Glacial Black Cherry soap. The Glacial Unscented balm and the Arctique aftershave increased that freeze a hundred times and gave me so post-shave care!
Have a great week!
