July 17 SOTA

Gillette Heritage Razor
Gillette Wilkinson Sword DE Blade (2)
JR #290 Cashmere Brush
Chiseled Face Cryogen SS
Proraso Green AS
Stirling Alum Block
Beard Growth: 24 hrs



I am really getting some use out of Cryogen SS. I think it's the most I have usesd it since I bought this puck a few years ago. I am not complaining.
Cryogen soap needs plenty of water, but the result is an awesome lather. Here it is:



Did WTG, XTG and ATG passes for an error-free BBS shave. I really like this razor and the Wilkinson Sword blades. These two items are the perfect combo to get a nice and easy close shave. Btw, I did a 4th non-shaving lather pass to really enjoy the menthol experience. I had very little Alum feedback. Applied the refreshing Proraso Green aftershave to finish this cold shave. Take care.

Thanks Gary

Thanks Joe, you are are right about the menthol I guess, but very mild.

In my early years of wetshaving, I enjoyed the mild menthol and eucalyptus scent. I still like Proraso Green. However, I just like the über menthol coldness of Cryogen. I am almost finished with the tub. However, I have TSD menthol bomb to add to my non-mentholated soaps so I don't have to get Glacial Soaps from Stirling or restock Cryogen. Btw, I haven't tried Stirling's Glacial soaps. However, I do know that it's not as concentrated as Cryogen because shavers have stated they the scents are not overpowered by the menthol. I may try Fine Accoutrements SnakeBite or Barrister and Mann's Artique one day.

Great shave Barry. I am not surprised that the soap performed well because Omega makes great brushes, too.

Beautiful presentation Pierpaolo!
