    I use the same ratio in aftershaves as well.

    As far as witch hazel, I use the cheap drug store variety. I'm using the Equate brand from Walmart at the moment. I had some mentholated witch hazel from the TSD Shoppe that's very cold. It also has aloe and glycerin and alcohol, so I've been mixing a little of that with the plain witch hazel. I enjoy the chill.

    I need to get some glycerin and add it to some of my splashes and witch hazel like Clint does.

    So in the name of snurdle dippers and shaving science, today I combined a pea sized sample of Proraso green with my Stirling Frankensoap made up of South Padre and I forget what else.
    Loaded the synthetic brush once and face lathered . 2 passes as ways .Was enough left in brush to get probably 2 more passes.
    Did a quick witch hazel cleanup on the jawline and wiped away the remains . This concoction left me with a fresh cool feeling on my skin and a nice soft feel as well.
    Yesterday I mentioned I would bust out the Clog Pruf so I added a new Gem SS blade and if the shave was any closer I would have skinned myself alive.
    May throw a splash of Skin Bracer original on later just for kicks.

    It's in the first aid section near the hydrogen peroxide and rubbing alcohol. They have Dickinsons as well but it's more expensive. Thayers is quite expensive around here. The Equate bottle is around $1.50 or less. Dickinsons is about $4.00 and Thayer's is $7 or $8.

    Dickinson's is about 7 bucks here . Never seen Thayers around anywhere I looked. I'll try the Equate if they have it.

    SEptember 5th
    Schick E3 w Personna (2)
    TGN Finest/Maple handle
    Stirling Coniferous SS
    Thayers
    Jeeves Mountain Rain AS
    IMG_2506.jpg Another good shave with the E3 this morning. Pulled out the Coniferous for the daily Stirling focus product. I don't use this soap very often, but I like it when I do. Everything worked as it should and I had a pleasant 3 pass'er.
    Pairing the Mountain Rain with Coniferous? Leaving the house, I smelled like I had chainsawed my way to the vehicle...in a rainstorm.
    Have a great day all!

    Do you have a Nutter's store in your town, Patrick? They are a national chain I believe. We have one here and they stock Thayers Witch Hazel.
