    Menthol Monday's Cold Water Shave

    Cold Water Rinse
    C.O. Bigelow Shave Cream
    Jayaruh #71
    Pal Injecto-Matic
    Personna injector
    CWR
    Hendrick's Witch Hazel
    Osage Rub

    The C.O. Bigelow Shave Cream lathered well with the Jayaruh #71 synthetic brush by Tom. Two passes and touch ups with the Pal Injecto-Matic and Personna injector Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Hendrick's Witch Hazel and then Osage Rub. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Menthol Monday:

    One helluva Grand Freeze!

    L’Oreal Men Expert Facial Wash
    Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
    Super Speed/7 AM day 8
    Stirling Glacial Wintergreen SS
    Stirling Glacial Wintergreen ASB
    Stirling Glacial Wintergreen WH
    Brut Deodorant Spray
    Brut EdT

    My face is going to need just about the whole day to thaw out after this heavy duty menthol bombardment - even the L’Oreal facial wash has some menthol in it although it’s relatively mild. The Glacial Wintergreen scent to me is beautiful - it really filled my bathroom when I was lathering up with the soap, the menthol sensation pummeled my face from the second the brush made contact, each pass felt colder, and the postshave feeling was so comfortable. The matching balm and witch hazel added lots of extra iciness as well as soothing. I actually enjoy the Brut fragrance a lot because it’s so old school and even barbershoppy. Three glorious passes did the job for me - another tip top BBS shave that was fit for a king!

    Wishing you all a great week - be well and stay safe![​IMG]
