The Colgate Shaving Mug Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #18 Badger brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Gem Jr. Bar Lather Catcher and the Personna GEM SS PTFE Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Pinaud Citrus Musk Cologne. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Sunday morning’s Grand Freeze:

Hot shower
Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Canadian Tech/Astra Green day 12
MSC Peppermint Latte SS
Prep ASB
MSC Peppermint Latte AS Splash
Lagerfeld Classic EdT

An evening report of a morning shave - this Peppermint Latte soap and aftershave are such a delight. The scent is exactly what it implies - a beautiful combination of peppermint and espresso coffee. The soap’s tallow formula gives the lather magnificent thickness, richness, cushion, and super slickness, there’s a boatload of frigid menthol, and the skincare is perfect. Thanks to my massage with the Prep my skin felt wonderful afterwards, and the Peppermint Latte aftershave went on with its bone chilling menthol sensation as well as its gorgeous scent that compliments the Lagerfeld Classic eau de toilette. I had such a dynamite three pass BBS shave!

Happy Hanukkah to all Jewish members!
