    Stirling Mentholated Pre-Shave Soap
    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Super Speed/new Astra
    Stirling Glacial Black Cherry SS
    Stirling Glacial Unscented AS Balm

    A killer-cold setup!

    Feather SE
    CWR
    Thayer's Lemon WH
    Pinaud Clubman

    I started off with Proraso Pre Shave. The C.O. Bigelow Shaving Cream face-lathered well with the Jayaruh #224 synthetic brush. I did the two passes with the AutoStrop VB1 and Feather SE blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Thayer's Lemon WH and then Pinaud Clubman AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    To open next week, only one change from that of today-substituting Gillette Cool Wave A.S. in place of today's Rise A.S.Cooling Balm

    Bon Vivant is a very nice compliment to Tabac. The lather was optimal, as usual and the brush felt softer - still not as soft as a synthetic, but much softer than it was when I got it. I'm going to use this brush all month to see how it changes as it breaks in.
    Prep: Van Yulay PSO
    Soap: Tabac
    Brush: Stirling Boar
    Razor: Rockwell 6s R6
    Blade: voskhod
    AS: Chatillon Lux Bon Vivant

    A sweet three pass BBS shave which froze my face to smithereens from the Glacial Black Cherry soap. The lather could not have been better and the scent was so deliciously-potent. My 1950's Super Speed, loaded with a new Astra made quick work of my rough stubble so effortlessly and the Glacial Unscented balm added to the freeze, along with awesome soothing. I can't wait to receive my new bottle of Arctique aftershave because this one is soon going to be finished!

    Have a great week, folks!

    WTG, touch up

    Lots of Bigelow cream on the SOTD posts today! It's good stuff. I followed suit with an enjoyable shave. Two days of growth were swiped away with ease and comfort. The Brisk aftershave is also loaded with menthol. Nice way to begin the work week.

    Have a great Monday!
