    Menthol Monday’s Bone Chilling Report:

    Cool shower
    Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
    Super Speed/7 AM day 2
    Stirling Glacial Electric Sheep SS
    Bundubeard Stoffel ASB
    Fine Snake Bite AS Splash
    Versace Eros EdP (sample)

    Not too much to say besides this shave was beautifully BBS as well as mega frigid. This Versace Eros fragrance……to be honest I don’t think I would want to have it in my rotation so after it’s finished I’ll forget about it.

    Wishing you all a great week ahead - be well and stay safe! [​IMG]

    I just felt like baseball today. The baseballs are ones I've gotten over the years. Most are give aways at games with my Dad when I was a kid. A few are boyhood heroes who I met and got to sign for me.
    I used the T2 on 6 for my cheeks and two passes were enough to get a smooth easy feel, though I was a bit careless and got a nick. I dialed down to 4 for the neck and everything went well there.
    Prep: cold water face wash
    Soap: B-M Diamond
    Brush: JR159 Slugger
    Razor: Rockwell T2

    A relaxing cooling early morning face & head shave.

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

    Finishing the shave off with a generous splash of Brut Original ASL with added menthol crystals.

    Hot Water Prep and Preshave = Derby Menthol shave cream
    Soap = Maca Root & Aloe
    Brush = Semogue EVO synthetic
    Bowl = white plastic
    Razor = Gillette Flare Tip
    Blade = Dorco Prime Platinum (1)
    Passes = 2 and touch ups
    Post = Usual CWR, Alum, rinse, pat dry, Thayer’s rose petal
    ASB = L’Occitane
    ASL = Blue Stratos
    Scent = TBS Black Musk

    Repeat super smooth easy shave, sticking with the theme, less Maca Root scooped up today but still plenty of lather. The Dorco is smooth but not too sharp imho, but a great combination in the Flare Tip nevertheless

    The Tabac Shave Soap lathered well with Jayaruh #30 Silvertip Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the RazoRock Black Hawk Razor and the Feather Professional AC Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Tabac After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Tuesday morning:

    Cool shower
    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Super Speed/7 AM day 3
    Biolijf Autumn SS
    Lubriderm Moisturizer
    Pinaud Bay Rum AS Splash

    In spite of the hot weather we’re getting today I wanted to go with this most delightful Autumn soap made by Biolijf in the Netherlands. Do I ever LOVE its spicy/clovey bay rum scent, my Plissoft synthetic brush whipped up tons of thick, rich, super slick lather, and it gave me so much soothing moisturizing that the Lubriderm lotion enhanced. Finally the lovely old school Pinaud Bay Rum aftershave and everything is in perfect order. Another great three pass BBS shave that was so much fun!

    Wishing you all a wonderful day - be well and stay safe![​IMG]

    A repeated classic set up Chris. The Dorco PP are a firm favourite of mine,they are smooth with a nice balance of efficiency too imho, what I like about them is they match up well with all my DE razors.
