    Once again I'm sorry for kicking off the new week so early. We're going to visit my Pops soon, so here it is!

    Menthol Monday:

    Stirling Mentholated Pre-Shave Soap
    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Super Speed/new Astra
    Stirling Glacial Wintergreen SS
    Stirling Glacial Wintergreen AS Balm
    Stirling Glacial Wintergreen WH
    B&M Arctique AS Splash
    Havana EdT

    There's more than enough menthol in this setup to make it feel like fifty below zero!

    Menthol Monday's Shave
    zcws.gif

    Proraso Pre Shave
    TSD Cool Lime
    Jayaruh #18
    Schick Adjustable
    Personna
    CWR
    Thayer's Lemon WH
    Pharaoh's Dreamsicle AS

    I started off with Proraso Pre Shave. The Pharaoh's Dreamsicle Shaving Soap face-lathered well with the Jayaruh #18 silvertip badger brush. I did two passes with the Schick Adjustable Razor with a Personna blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Thayer's Lemon WH and then Pharaoh's Dreamsicle AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...Today's shave was citrus heavy: lime soap, lemon WH, and orange AS.

    Razor: Gillette Fat Handle Tech
    Blade: Topaz Platinum
    Brush: Razorock BC Plissoft
    Soap: Perfectly Natural Grapefruit IPA
    Post: BW Thomas Tew A/S


    Sorry for such a long post, I have been slacking on my shave posts. This blade has been going strong and is a lot better than the other Topaz blades I have tried. The Perfectly Natural soap made a creamy lotion like lather. Got a decent shave but face is a little red after aplying aftershave. Hope everyone is doing well and getting great shaves!

    I haven't shaved in maybe a week, the scruf is driving me nuts.
    Looks like a great opportunity to use my lastest haul, Stirling's Mountain Man and the new Tuxedo type knot from Stirling.
