    I don't use Feather DE blades very often as they are expensive for just 2 shaves....but today was a shave made in heaven:)
    A great start for what is destined to be a very busy week.

    I'm still struggling to get a close finish on the neck just under the jawline but this was a far more satisfactory shave than my previous go with this razor.
    Happy Shaving one and all.

    Good morning lads and lassies,

    Menthol Monday:

    Stirling Mentholated Pre-Shave Soap
    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Goodfella/7 AM day 4
    Stirling Glacial Eskimo Tuxedo SS
    Stirling Glacial Unscented ASB
    Alcolado Glacial Menthol Splash
    Havana EdT

    If this shave was any colder I think my face would have disintegrated - we’re talking about some major menthol. The Glacial Eskimo Tuxedo gave me its beautiful SDM scent with a boatload of rich, super slick lather and two boatloads of some of the most powerful freeze I ever experienced, along with such great postshave care. The Glacial Unscented balm and the Penguin kept the freeze going strong. BBS in two fun-filled passes!

    Wish you all a great week!

    Star 3 piece razor
    Silver Star blade
    FS Silver Tip brush
    Gillette Pure SC
    Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
    Colorado Sage cologne

    Saw the Gillette Pure SC at the local Walmart, read the label and said "Why not"? 1st use today and it was pretty good. Lathered easily and gave nice glide and decent cushion. I'm going to use it all week and make a full report later. Right now, my face is happy. Now go enjoy your day folks
