    Just the Basics June!!

    June 24

    Razor - Edwin Jagger DE89l
    Blade [​IMG] (2)
    Soap - Stirling Iced Pineapple
    Brush - The Canuck
    Post - Alum

    It's Menthol Monday! Staying with the EJ and Voskhod for the basic setup and adding in the Stirling Iced Pineapple to get that great pineapple scent along with the cold menthol kick. The Iced soaps from Stirling bring a great chill with them and they are fantastic to have around. The Canuck with its flat top SynBad knot handled the lather with great ease. Three slow and luxurious passes to a BBS finish and it was a great way to end a fairly lazy Monday.

    Speaking of Stirling, the Cartel Politburo has declared that Stirling is and will be, henceforth, the official soapmaker to the Cartel. Rod @ezlovan produced an absolute spot on perfect soap for us this year so we'll just keep challenging him year after year to keep it up. No pressure. Have a great Tuesday!
