Time for my weekly kick-off, guys!

First off, a Happy Thanksgiving to all in Canada!

Menthol Monday:

Neutrogena Men Facial Wash
Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
Junjie/new Astra
Stirling Glacial Margaritas in the Arctic S/S
Lucky Tiger A/S Cream
Barrister & Mann Arctique A/S Splash
Oscar de la Renta Pour Lui EdT

The one day of the week where I can really let it rip with some of the strongest menthol on the market, and I'm going all-out!

Barrister&Mann is located here in Boston-might be worth a visit someday.

Monday's


Dove Men Face Wash
L'OCCITANE Cade
Jayaruh Bumble Bee
German made OT
Personna Super
CWR, Asma Alum Block
T.N. Dickinson's WH
Pinaud Vegetal

The L'OCCITANE Cade Shaving Soap face-lathered well with my Jayaruh Bumble Bee brush. Two passes and touch ups with the German made OT razor with a Personna Super blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse and alum block, I finished off with T.N. Dickinson's WH and then Pinaud Vegetal After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

To commence another week, I made a decision tonight to lose the Willliams. I know the artisans will be better for me. But in the meantime, Menthol Monday looks this way:

prep-Stirling Barbershop Bath Soap
shave-Barbasol Soothing Aloe
razor-Gillette Sensor Deuce Pivot + DisposeABLE
A.S.-Stirling Barbershop

Great shave tonight with the Scot's Pine Sheep soap and the PAL adjustable. Rod's sheep soaps are as slick as anything I have ever used, and always give an amazing shave.



I hope everyone has a safe and productive week.

I'm happy the PAL Adjustable works for you brother! .........

That boosts the already good sense I have about the sheep soaps. Thanks!

Marvelous shave with the Schick Adjustable injector razor this morning. This injector razor is dreamy when paired with a twin blade. Magnificent lather from the KMF shave cream. This shave cream is a joy to face lather and generates bountiful, slick, protective, and moisturizing lather. Three passes for a refreshing dolphin smooth shave. Enjoy your shaves my friends.

Very nice setup my friend.

I literally froze my face off this morning - the Glacial MITA soap delivered its POWERFUL menthol effect with the beautiful citrusy/tropical scent which I love so much, its lather worked up so rich for an awesome BBS shave with my 2,00$ Junjie razor loaded with a new Astra. That Lucky Tiger a/s cream is something else, and the Arctique is in a class all by itself. Man, is it ever frigid!

Nice, one-pass shave this morning. Yesterday's shave was less than 24 hours prior to this one and therefore I didn't need more than a quick pass. Stirling products worked well again.

Have a great day!
