Menthol Monday’s Grand Freeze:

Quick shower
Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Super Speed/Wilkinson day 13
Stirling Glacial Citron SS
Bundubeard Stoffel ASB
Stirling Glacial Citron AS Splash
Christian Dior Eau Sauvage EdT

This setup…….oh my goodness……it’s so frigid - if you can’t handle intense menthol then stay away from it and leave it for me. The scent of this Glacial Citron is so beautiful - lemon, lime, and a little grapefruit all come together to make it so refreshing. The soap is a tallow based lather monster with such awesome slickness, the menthol sensation hits like a ton of bitterly cold bricks, and the postshave feeling is wonderful. The Stoffel balm is also a bona fide face freezer with a very nice peppermint scent, and it gives lots of soothing as well as moisturizing. The Glacial Citron aftershave seems to pair so well with the Eau Sauvage fragrance. Three passes did me proud - such a terrific BBS shave despite the blade getting duller.

Wishing you all a good week ahead - be well and stay safe!

Tuesday morning:

Hot shower
Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Super Speed/Wilkinson day 14
Mickey Lee Paradise Frost SS
Lubriderm Moisturizer
Alt Innsbruck AS Splash

This Paradise Frost soap has been sitting underneath my sink for ages so I pulled it out this morning. It’s tallow based, it has a really nice, refreshing scent which I can’t describe, it lathers wonderfully, it’s fairly slick, there’s a mild kiss of menthol, and it’s pretty good skincare wise. The Lubriderm moisturizer saw to my postshave needs, and do I ever love the old school European scent of the Alt Innsbruck as well as its strong menthol punch. The Wilkinson blade is retired now after two weeks of diligent service. Another awesome three pass BBS shave that was very enjoyable!

Have a great day - be well and stay safe!
