Friday's Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Palmolive Shaving Cream
Jayaruh #71
Pal Injecto-Matic
Personna injector
CWR
Hendrick's Witch Hazel
Lustray Spice After Shave

The Palmolive Shaving Cream lathered well with the Jayaruh #71 synthetic brush by Tom. Two passes and touch ups with the Pal Injecto-Matic and Personna injector Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Hendrick's Witch Hazel and then Lustray Spice After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Friday morning’s Grand Freeze:

L’Oréal Men Expert Facial Wash
Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Super Speed/7 AM day 12
Captain Nemo Absolute Zero SS
Captain Nemo Absolute Zero AS Toner
Osage Rub AS Splash
Bleu de Chanel Deodorant Stick
Bleu de Chanel EdP

This setup is not for the faint hearted because it’s so bone chillingly COLD. The Absolute Zero soap and aftershave toner have a lovely aquatic scent with some minty notes, the soap is a vegan based treasure with awesome lather that has so much slickness, the menthol sensation is so powerful that it’s easily a match for any of the Stirling Glacials, and it’s so skin friendly. The matching aftershave toner is another menthol atom bomb with lots of moisturizing and soothing - my dear brother Abir put so much love into this stuff when he created it, and the Rubby Dubby Doo added another layer of icicles into my face. Last but not least the magnificent Bleu de Chanel fragrance and I’m ready to enjoy another relaxing day of retirement. Three passes gave me a most delightful BBS shave - yes, the 7 AM blade is still performing quite well!

Enjoy the weekend and your shaves - be well and stay safe!
