Menthol Monday's Shave Cold Water Rinse TSD Cool Lime The Brush B-3 by Tom Starling SE Gem Blue Star SE CWR Osage Rub My prep was just a cold water rinse. The TSD Cool Lime Shaving Soap face lathered well with The Brush B-3 by Tom brush. I did two passes with the Starling SE razor with a Gem Blue Star SE blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Osage Rub. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Menthol Monday: Stirling Mentholated Pre-Shave Soap Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster Super Speed/7 AM day 5 Stirling Glacial Margaritas in the Arctic SS Stirling Glacial Unscented ASB B&M Arctique AS Splash Aramis EdT Not only is my face frozen solid from this menthol assault it’s also absolutely BBS. As soon as I started lathering up with the Glacial MITA soap the freeze kicked in and got progressively stronger. The Glacial Unscented balm and the Arctique brought the freeze to another level! Have a great week!

Sandalwood Sunday Shave of the Night - 3/10/2019 1. Hot Shower with a Duke Cannon Old Milaukee Beer soap (smell is sandalwood & not cheap beer) 2. ART OF SHAVING SANDALWOOD SHAVE SOAP - along with Proraso - this is sandalwood for me, and my fav. sandalwood scents. AOS shave soap is pretty awesome, seems AOS don't get much love nowadays - but it is a really slick ! love it - and the scent has power. 3. Brush is a Muhle Travel "Synthetic Badger" different than any other synth knot i have - i really like it - it does feel like a badger - but this brush is not good for hard soaps - PERFECT for creams... 4. PAA PRISMATIC and a Fresh SHARK blade is my favorite DE Combo - nothing smoother for my skin. 5. FINE Sandalwood is a prefect match to the AOS sandalwood - just love it.
Gillette New razor Gillette Spoiler blade Vie-Long Silver Tip brush Stirling MITA SS Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe Pinaud Citrus Musk cologne Great combo resulting in a fabulous shave and my face is very happy. Now go enjoy your day folks
54 Flair Tip v 65 Krona. Prefer the feel of the Krona though the Gillette might do slightly better ATG on my head. Both are ultimately too inefficient for a daily head shaver but for my beard do well enough.
Good morning Gents. Well this was my first time using Mentholated Williams and not sure how old it is, but has a price of 10 cents on the box then marked down to 5 cents in writing. Pretty much has no aroma left in the cake but I did pick up a slight tingle of menthol when lathering up and after the shave. B4 Prairie Creations shut it doors, she had Walters Menthol which was a Williams Mentholated clone and that was a superb tallow soap. Nice refreshing menthol aroma and lathered up like no ones business. Now I have to wonder if the original Williams Menthol was similar to Walters Menthol.
Excellent shave with my trusty Never Fail Hot water preparation T&H Ultimate Comfort PSO Mike’s Natural Soaps Hungarian Lavender T&H Wellington Super Badger Nielsen’s Never Fail 5/8 Thayers Witch Hazel Rose Petal Happy shaving - Karl
