Sunday morning’s Grand Freeze: Stirling Mentholated Pre Shave Soap Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster Super Speed/Schick day 7 Stirling Glacial Black Cherry SS Stirling Glacial Unscented ASB B&M Arctique AS Splash This morning I wanted to show my Plissoft 26mm some love and I’m so happy that I did because it’s an awesome lather maker. It made the Glacial Black Cherry soap bury my face in rich, super slick, frigid, delightfully scented lather which also had brilliant postshave care. The Glacial Unscented balm kept the freeze going, its moisturising and soothing sensation is A1, not to mention how lethally cold the Arctique aftershave is and what a lovely scent it has. Another picture perfect BBS shave! Have a nice Sunday - be well and safe! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Menthol Monday: Stirling Mentholated Pre Shave Soap Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole Super Speed/Schick day 8 Stirling Glacial Wintergreen SS Stirling Glacial Wintergreen ASB Stirling Glacial Wintergreen WH Bleu de Chanel Deodorant Stick Bleu de Chanel EdP With the temperature expected to reach 35 Celsius today I took a very good decision to go all out with some of the strongest mentholated products I have. The Glacial Wintergreen soap, balm, and witch hazel did a great job of freezing my face and leaving it feeling fantastic. Another brilliant BBS shave! Have a good week - be well and safe!

Grabbed some stuff for a pleasant evening shave yesterday. Not in picture, but I used Trumpers Lime Skin Food as a preshave. A generous glob of the closest Stirling soap on hand was quickly rendered to a sloshy and finely aerated suds with the @jtspartan 2019 LE crew brush. I think this knot is supurb in the microbubbles department, but I’m going toeventually pull it and reset a little lower so it is not so floppy. The ‘My Fine Steed’ v2 visited the ‘domed hones of iniquity’ and friends in the abrasive charged ‘bumpy balsa strop’ arena for a smooth improvement. I do like a little more time on hanging strops since I convexed the balsa. A closer shave then usual with no alarms from alum, then a splash of Glacial Wintergreen WH. Great cooling, but a little too close to BenGay for me to buy more. Now if there was a Glacial Spearmint Witch Hazel, I’d be in. Glacial Citron for the Glorious Stank of the night.
Friday morning: Stirling Mentholated Pre Shave Soap Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole Super Speed/Schick day 12 Stirling Gin & Tonic on the Rocks SS Stirling Glacial Lemon Chill ASB Master Splash Creations Citrus Melody AS Splash I suppose I could classify this shave as a Grand Freeze because although the Gin & Tonic on the Rocks soap is not overwhelmingly cold like a Glacial it’s still pretty chilly and both the Glacial Lemon Chill balm as well as the Citrus Melody aftershave are two menthol atom bombs. The Schick blade is still performing well - it helped to get me as smooth as silk! Have a great weekend - stay healthy and safe. I’m going today for my second Pfizer shot against covid.

Thursday morning’s Grand Freeze: Stirling Mentholated Pre Shave Soap Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole Super Speed/Astra Green day 4 Stirling Glacial Margaritas in the Arctic SS Stirling Glacial Unscented ASB Master Splash Creations Frosted Spearmint AS Splash Bleu de Chanel Deodorant Stick Bleu de Chanel EdP It’ll take almost all day for my face to thaw out after this intense menthol bombardment - the Glacial MITA soap has the same lovely citrusy/tropical scent and rich, super slick lather as the regular version but the menthol sensation is three times stronger. The postshave feeling is also the same - in other words it’s perfect. The Glacial Unscented balm gives such great moisturizing and soothing along with a boatload of menthol, and Fernando’s Frosted Spearmint aftershave is another menthol atom bomb. The Astra Green blade helped to ensure another easy peasy BBS shave that was so much fun! Have a good day - be well and safe! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I took a gamble on Boat Drinks and ordered a tub of soap, AS, body butter, and bath bar. I’m very glad that I did! It’s a perfect summer fragrance...........it’s intoxicating!
I completely agree. When it first arrived I thought it was a bit much. Once I started using it I just can't get enough. Love this stuff. Strawberry Lemonade is on my want list. Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk

Menthol Monday: A true Grand Freeze! Stirling Mentholated Pre Shave Soap Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole Super Speed/Astra Green day 8 Stirling Glacial Obsidian SS Prep ASB Fine Snake Bite AS Splash Bleu de Chanel Deodorant Stick Bleu de Chanel EdP My beautiful Yaqi Barber Pole whipped up such beautiful lather that was so rich, slick, and protective, the anise scent filled my bathroom, the menthol sensation felt so frigid that it was borderline painful but in a good way, and the postshave feeling was perfect. The Prep and the Snake Bite aftershave completed the job superbly. What a great shave this was! Have a good week - be well and safe! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I recall us talkinabout GW. You like it a lot-I couldn't go for it too much(other than the nice cold feeling).
