    Thanks, Gary. Have to admit I was surprised on the quality of the shave I receive from the TV Special.

    Menthol Monday's Shave
    [​IMG]

    Cold Water Rinse
    Fine Snake Bite Shaving Soap
    Jayaruh #395 two-band badger
    Supply V2
    Schick Proline
    CWR
    Osage Rub

    The Fine Snake Bite Shaving Soap face-lathered well with the Jayaruh #395 two-band badger brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Supply V2 injector razor with a Schick Proline blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Osage Rub. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Menthol Monday:

    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Super Speed/Shark day 3
    RVT Yuka Lyptik SS
    Prep ASB
    Aqua Velva Ice Blue AS Splash
    Bleu de Chanel EdP

    Not as frigid a setup as I normally select for a Menthol Monday shave but still cold enough to satisfy me. The Yuka Lyptik soap is definitely colder than the Frosty Bay Rum that I used yesterday, it has that awesome lather with plenty of slickness which all of Mo’s soaps are known for, it really does smell like the Halls eucalyptus lozenges, and the postshave feeling is great. The Prep delivered its own special cooling, soothing and moisturizing care with that nice medicinal scent that I love so much, while the Aqua Velva felt so chilly - the scent to me is awesome but it doesn’t clash with the Bleu de Chanel. Three easy peasy passes left me as smooth as silk!

    Have a good week and be safe!

    And here we are again in winter: since last night... cold and wind!
    I felt like trying a soap that had been lying unused for years: it dried up so much that I used it as a stick.

    It required more water than I remembered, but I remembered how efficient it was.
