    Just opened up my 3rd Stoylin Bath Soap(course I use them just for hand-washing, but I might try one in th shower)..Barbershop. On the 29th, I'll get another batch, but will "pause" further arrivals after that so as to "catch up".

    Are they cooling off, or getting a nice "bath"?

    July 20 SOTE

    Good evening.

    G E JONES ShakeSharp
    2 Rockwell DE Blades (5?)
    JR #290 Cashmere Brush
    Chiseled Face Cryogen SS and AS
    Maggard's Alum Block
    Dickinson's Witch Hazel
    Beard Growth: 25.5 hrs

    20220721_190055.jpg

    I decided to continue to use the Face Freezer again. I think this is the first time that I have used Cryogen for 3 consecutive shaves. I have the hot weather to thank for it. I brought out the ShakeSharp Razor because Jeff Greene piffed it to me and I want to dedicate tonight's shave to him. He is also a menthol head so using Cryogen is very appropriate as well.

    Here's my lather shot:
    20220721_190726.jpg

    I made enough for 3+ passes.
    Did a nice 2 pass shave, but did get a moustache microdot, but the styptic pen took care of it. The blades started to feel a tiny bit rough so I binned them after the final pass. I have to say that I was lathering my face, I still added cold water to smooth it out and I really felt the menthol kick in, especially after the first pass. I am not one to waste soap so I lathered my face the third time to get that face freeze sensation. Lol!

    I did get some alum feedback on my right neck, but that was it. Witch hazel and the matching splash ended this nice shave. I have used Cryogen many times and I can say that you can forgo the coffee because this soap wakes you up. Take care.

    Very nice shave from the “puffed” razor. I will have to break out my GE Jones Shake Sharp during the month of August.
