  1. Van-tastic Shave
    Everything came together today. Van Yulay PSO set the stage and Poseidon provided thick lather at the behest of my HIS lather monster. Der Futur comfortably decimated my stubble in three passes on five. Cold water shaving is a great wake up call, and Shuyak Island with menthol kept the chill going while feeding my face beneficial oils. This aftershave smells much like Versace Pour Homme, so I used that EdT to wrap things up.
    Go Tigers! Today is the home opener- I wonder how many of my students will be "sick" today.

    On the matter of trying trying to finish my first container of TOBS and never being able to get beyond 1/4 tub. Last night I set up my hunter's camera and managed to capture the gremlin that is refilling my TOBS tub with cream every night while I am sleeping! No wonder I couldn't finish this cream!

  12. It takes a real Cracky Wacky Ticky Tacky Menthol Monkey like yours truly to use the Glacial Wintergreen trio when it's snowing outside here in Montreal, but I LOVE that freeze! (BBS again in two easy passes!) :happy088: :happy088:

    Prep: Warm shower
    Blade: Gillette Platinum
    Razor: 1964 Travel Tech
    Brush: Trader Joes synthetic
    Lather: Tabac shave stick
    Post: Witch hazel splash enhanced with Fine Platinum, Nivea sensitive balm
    WTG, touch-up

    No picture due to travel. Pretty nice shave with the little travel Tech. One little chin weeper but all else was fine. I'm decently smooth for one pass and touch-up.

    Hope you have a great Friday!
  15. Snow here also today. I'll use warm products today.
  16. Maybe it shipped ground because you ordered the aftershave too and regulations require anything with alcohol to be shipped as such ?
