Menthol Monday
Very chilly today, but also a quality shave.

Rating: 5 / 5

Razor: Rockwell 6s R6
Blade: Astra SP
Brush: Lutin Lightning
Pre-Shave: PAA Cube 2.0 Menthol
Lather: B&M Terror
Aftershave: B&M Terror
Additional Care:
PAA Mysterium Serum Menthol

 

↑ Love the brush

 

Menthol Monday:

Stirling Mentholated Pre-Shave Soap
Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
Super Speed/new Rapira
Stirling Glacial Spearmint SS
Stirling Glacial Spearmint ASB
B&M Arctique AS Splash
Bleu de Chanel EdP

Yesterday for some reason the Gillette blade felt a bit rough although it performed very well and that surprised me a lot because it was brand new so I changed it up to a new Rapira and it felt a lot smoother as well as very comfortable. The Glacial Spearmint soap’s scent is so lovely - it filled the bathroom, I had two boatloads of fabulous, bone chilling lather and such a great postshave feeling. The matching balm, together with the Arctique aftershave brought the freeze to a crazy level. Three passes did the job and I’m as smooth as silk!

Have a great week!

Have a great day!​

 

Rotbart #15 razor
Treet Silver blade
Vie-Long Silver Tip brush
Piccadilly Lime SC
Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
Old Spice Fresh Lime A/S

Got the Piccadilly SC on Friday and have used it since. Nice scent, makes tons on lather very easily but (for me) the skin care is not as good as I'd like. I'll use it some more this week to decide. Nice to use a Treet Silver again. I only get 2 good shaves from them but that's ok as I like the shaves I get. Now go enjoy your day folks

 

No it isn't that....mine is probably the original can that later developed into what you have.

 

Is the OS vintage or new?

 

If there's no picture of Arctique in your shave-it can't be Monday .

 

Prep: Hot shower, Bulldog face scrub
Pre-shave: Von der Hagen Shave Oil
Cream: Rocky Mountain Barber Company Cedar Spice
Blade: Amazon Solimo Three Blade
Post Shave: English Leather

 

I'm quite anxious about that Rocky Mtn. Barber....glad to see they now have 5 oz. soaps.

 

Interesting combo.....SANDpiper and SANDalwood.
