    Sunday morning’s Grand Freeze:

    L’Oréal Men Expert Facial Wash
    Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
    Super Speed/Astra Green day 14
    Captain Nemo Absolute Zero SS
    Prep ASB
    Captain Nemo Absolute Zero AS Toner
    Bleu de Chanel Deodorant Stick
    Bleu de Chanel EdP

    Today I had a mega Grand Freeze from Abir’s magnificent Absolute Zero soap and aftershave - the menthol sensation from these two is totally off the friggin charts. The soap’s vegan formula is one of the best I ever used because it lathers as easily as any of my tallow soaps if not better, thirty seconds of swirling buried my face in such thick, rich, creamy, super slick lather that has a beautiful aquatic scent, the menthol hit me like a ton of frigid bricks, and the postshave feeling was wonderful. The Prep went on so moisturizing, cooling, as well as soothing, and the Absolute Zero aftershave toner has no alcohol in it so it never burns or stings, it also soothes, it has the same awesome scent as the soap, with a MONSTROUS menthol kick. Last but not least the Bleu de Chanel delightful fragrance which I love so much and I’m good to go. The Astra Green blade is finito - but it gave me one last hoorah with a dynamite three pass BBS shave that I enjoyed immensely!

    Have a great Sunday - be well and stay safe![​IMG]

    I used to love a phrase here describing warm shaves on a warm day. "Light my face on fire". With that, I think that may be the result for Monday(12), and the next two days.Here's my plan:

    prep-Dove Men + Care Bodywash(in shower)
    shave-Fine Accoutrements 21st Century soap(Latigo)
    brush-Crowm King(Duro, Spindle, Tali)
    razor-Gillette Sensor Deuce Pivot + DisposeABLE
    A.S.-Fine Accoutrements(Latigo)*

    *
    it doesn't say "21st Century"on this, but it must be...right?
