(Face & Head Shave)

For all intents & purposes I was going to use the Dorco prime platinum but changed my mind at the last minute and used the Derby Usta instead due to me forgetting that I hadn't added them to my blade rotation for a while and was curious to revisit them.

Another eclectic shave set up where everything paired together wonderfully. The Arko Sensitive Shaving Cream /The Williams Mug Shaving Soap mix worked wonderfully together providing me with slick productive lather with a great post shave feel.

A close comfortable face & head shave with no errors to report.

Finishing the shave off with a few small squirts of Blue Stratos EdT to the pulse points.

My face & precious swede are feeling smooth and smelling divine.

Stay safe, and enjoy the start of the weekend ladies & gentlemen.

Saturday morning’s Arctic Grand Freeze:

Hot shower
Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Goodfella/Wilkinson day 13
Stirling Glacial Frozen Tuxedo SS
Bundubeard Stoffel ASB
Stirling Glacial Frozen Tuxedo AS Splash

Not only do this Glacial Frozen Tuxedo soap and aftershave freeze the living crap out of you the scent is MAGNIFICENT. The soap delivered tons of awesome lather, the menthol sensation felt killer cold, and it left a soothed, super comfortable postshave feeling. The Stoffel balm from Bundubeard doesn’t lack menthol either and it’s wonderful in the skincare department. Finally the Glacial Frozen Tuxedo aftershave went on frigidly cold along with its dynamic scent that I love so much. Three passes knocked off my tough stubble and left me mega BBS - what a shave this was!

To all the Jewish members here I wish you Chag Pesach Sameach - enjoy your Seder!

Personna Injector Blade

The START Shave Cream lathered well with Jayaruh #277 Silvertip Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Schick M-2 Adjustable razor and the Personna Injector Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Humphrey's Witch Hazel and Clubman Pinaud AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
