Friday morning: Stirling Mentholated Pre-Shave Soap Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster Super Speed/Gillette day 7 Stirling Gin & Tonic on the Rocks SS Stirling Glacial Unscented ASB Osage Rub AS Splash Our weather is starting to warm up again so I wanted to ramp up the menthol sensation and this setup was a perfect way to do it. The mentholated pre-shave soap from Stirling has a terrific cooling effect, it’s unscented, and it really softens up the stubble while leaving the skin spotlessly clean. The Gin & Tonic on the Rocks soap’s scent profile says juniper berries as well as lemon and lime - to be honest I have no idea what juniper berries smell like but the lemon and lime smell beautiful. The lather works up so rich and slick, the menthol feels medium strong on the first pass but when you re-lather it really punches you. The Glacial Unscented balm felt frigid as well as soothing with super moisturizing, and the Osage Rub delivered its own special bone chilling effect. BBS from three fun filled passes! Have a great weekend!

Thanks! It's from Symmetrical Pottery. I ordered it last week expecting the 12 week wait as stated on their website. I ordered one with a black foot. They emailed shortly after placing my order with pictures of this one with the blue foot that was available now if I didn't want to wait. I couldn't say no. Sent from my SM-T800 using Tapatalk

SOTD Stirling SEptember 20th Stirling Mentholated Pre-Shave Soap RazoRock ECO Crown Super Stainless ½ (3)/ Gillette Nacet ½ 30DCLE (26mm, Frigate Class) Stirling 2019 Dirty South Shavers soap and AS Did a little experimenting with the ECO this morning. I started the shave with the stainless steel handle and the crown Super Stainless blade. It still had a bit of drag and hesitation so I switched out the blade for a fresh ½ Nacet. Much better! It cut through the whiskers without pause and made the razor feel much smoother. I also tried the Nacet with the SS handle but it didn't offer any improvements so I finished the shave with the aluminum handle. I'm really digging the scent of the Dirty South Shavers set, it smells so good! Anyway, three passes for an IBBS finish. Have a great day and weekend my friends! Sent from my Galaxy using Tapatalk
