I gotta kick off the new week now because I'm gonna be very busy after!

Menthol Monday:

Gatsby Ice Cooling Gel Facial Wash
Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
Super Speed/new Shark
Stirling Glacial Margaritas in the Arctic S/S
Diana Menthol Balm
B&M Arctique A/S Splash

This Glacial MITA soap is something for the books - what an insane freeze as well as awesome lather and skincare it has. I'm also crazy in love with the Diana balm and the Arctique aftershave splash, and the Shark blades are also pretty good!

Monday's Shave Plan:

prep-Dial 4 Men Bodywash(Ultimate Clean)in shower
shave-Stirling Barbershop soap
brush-WSP Pure Badger
razor-Pivot DisposeABLE Nation from Gillette Sensor Deuce
A.S.-Clubman Original Scent.

The weather for this week here appears to be up and down temp. wise, so I'd like to get in 4, maybe 5, of "Team Stirling/Clubman"...probably won't get back to it again until the fall.

Monday's Planned "Anything But Gillette" DE Shave


Dove Men Face Wash
VDH Luxury
Jayaruh TSD Challenge Boar
Edwin Jagger 89bl Chrome
Asco Super Stainless
CWR, Asma Alum Block
Thayer's Lemon WH

The VDH Luxury Shaving Soap face-lathered well with my Jayaruh TSD Challenge Boar brush. I did two passes the Edwin Jagger 89bl Chrome razor and Asco Super Stainless blade, and I ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse and alum block, I finished off with Thayer's Lemon WH and then Florida Water. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Monday Planned SOTD

Vintage Merkur razor
Tim Blem guitar neck shaving brush
Martin de Candre Fougére shaving soap

Do you know what vintage the Merkur is? The original Progress had the same plastic guard plate but don't know when it was phased out.

Sort of - to myself. No one in my family would know what to buy. I wanted to get a nice razor to celebrate the big 5-0 and really wanted a Wolfman. I did not think I had a shot and the OneBlade was on sale a Amazon. I used a couple of gift cards I had saved and decided to splurge. The funny thing is I kept trying to get a Wolfman and actually got lucky last week when James opened the store. I ordered a Wolfman and should get it this week. So I was able to swing two great razors! I never thought I would be successful getting an order in. I guess you only turn 50 once! I only used the OneBlade once - this morning for my birthday, but it shaved awesome. It really seems to be a great razor. Good to hear you have been enjoying it also.

Thank you!
