    Friday's Shave
    zcws.jpg

    Cold Water Wash
    Proraso Sandalwood
    Jayaruh #353
    Damaskeene 1912
    Gem Damaskeene SE
    CWR
    Dove Men+Care Post Shave Balm

    My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Proraso Sandalwood Shave Cream face lathered well with the Jayaruh #353 Badger/Boar brush. I did two passes with the Damaskeene 1912 razor with a Gem Damaskeene SE blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Dove Men+Care Post Shave Balm. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Stirling Glacial Lemon Chill SS
    Stirling Glacial Lemon Chill ASB
    Fine Snake Bite AS Splash
    Eau Sauvage EdT

    Holy Mackerel, am I ever frozen after such an intense menthol bombardment from the Glacial Lemon Chill soap, balm, and Snake Bite aftershave. Smooth as silk in two effortless passes - by the way, the Eau Sauvage is a very old school fragrance but my wife loves it on me!

    Have a great weekend!

    Nice shave Jeff. I will have to get myself a Glacial Soap suitable for the Summer. The only one I have is Glacial Wintergreen which I love......but associate with the Winter months! Any recommendations?

    Brian, there’s also Glacial Black Cherry or Glacial Obsidian - in fact they’re all perfect choices for summer!
