My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Ingram Shave Cream face lathered well with the Jayaruh #206 Brush.

Menthol Monday:

Bleu de Chanel EdP

It takes guts to use a setup like this one, believe me - this Glacial Wintergreen soap can wreak havoc on anyone who cannot tolerate intense menthol. This one is the real deal, not that synthetic cooling agent used by other soaps such as B&M Terror or Noble Otter Orbit. With this soap you get a beautiful wintergreen scent, fabulous lather which is so rich, slick, as well as protective, and an arctic menthol blast which feels like a -25 Celsius wind blowing on your face. The matching balm and witch hazel both have that same delightful scent with that potent freeze and such great soothing. Three passes gave me a cracker of a BBS shave!

Have a great week and enjoy your shaves!
