    Dunk my head into a bucket of ice-cold lemonade? Why, yes - that sounds positively delightful! That's the comment and the description of Rod's gold medal winning Glacial Lemon Chill soap which is such a top-favourite of mine. Do I ever love the scent, lather, intense menthol power, and skincare of this soap. The Rubby Dubby Doo is another aftershave that I love so much - it's a damned chilly one. This Junjie is a pretty good razor - not the most forgiving one, but not that aggressive either. ;) :D

    You inspired me to use it after seeing it in your PIF. It's one of my favorite razors.

    This was my shave from earlier today 3/22/16
    Razor: Gillette Red Tip
    Blade: NOS Durex
    Lather: TSD Iced Lime face lathered with VDH boar hair
    Post: witch hazel and razorock problem solver Lime

    This shave went okay. Lather was great and everything went smoothly. But the blade did not seem to be very sharp. Had some slight tugging even on the first WTG pass. Just did 2 passes, 2 pass was ATG everywhere except the Adams apple. Even with going ATG the shave was not very close. Just pulled the blade back out of the drawer and gave it a thorough stropping on my forearm, which will hopefully smooth things over for my next attempt with it.

    Yes it is but sometimes I don't mind scratchy. Maybe it will get better with time. If knot haha I can put a different knot in it.

    SHAVE OF THE DAY
    20160322_182050(0).jpg

    Razor: Gillette ball end tech
    Blade: Gillette Goal (4th shave)
    Brush: RazoRock plissoft
    Soap: Aramis shaving soap
    Post: Corn Huskers lotion/ USB
    Scent: Paul Sebastian cologne

    2 pass shave today. I still have some irritation from the last few shaves, so I figured I had better not press my luck. Did not get a super smooth shave. On a side note, I love the scent of Aramis and Got a good lather. I think the problem is the blade, so it will be changed. Decided to finish the shave with something soothing. Hope everyone had a great shave!
