Mon., Feb. 24, 2020
Hot wash w/Neutrogena Men Invigorating Facewash
Hot towel
Proraso Green Preshave Cream
RazoRock Plissoft
Stirling Eucalyptus Mint
One Blade Core w/ Feather FHS (2)
4 passes, touch up
Cold rinse
Alum
Thayers Witch Hazel
Neutrogena Men Triple Protect Face Lotion
Osage Rub

Acceptable (barely) shave. I usually face lather with Stirling, but today I bowl lathered. It took a little time, but it was worth it.

 

Thanks!

 

Menthol Monday:

Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
Super Speed/Shark day 3
Bundubeard African Potato X 3 SS
Prep ASB
B&M Arctique AS Splash
Bleu de Chanel EdP

Damn, there’s enough menthol in this setup to make someone scream bloody murder if they can’t tolerate a grand freeze like this one - believe it or not this African Potato soap freezes the living crap out of you, yet it feels so good and soothing. The more you work up the lather the thicker it gets and the scent is gorgeous. The Prep felt plenty cold as well and it stops irritation or razor burn before it even starts. I can’t begin to describe the freezing power of the Arctique aftershave - it’s something that has to be felt, and by the way it smells lovely. Three passes gave me best of BBS!

Have a great week!

Stayed home and got in an early shave. Clean shaven and fresh, clean scent from the WSP Barbershop & Azzaro scent profiles. Manly and clean. Do we need anything more? Yes, out for breakfast with the Lady of The House. A wonderful day and shaves to all...​

 

Thank you!

 

What made it "barely acceptable"? You certainly employed quality hard & software.

 

That! was a "must-scroll" shavette-fu.
