Near 60 degrees today, back down to 32 tomorrow. I hate these spring teases! Oh, well. I am one who certainly appreciates the fact that in our area (South Jersey) all of our seasons are pretty equal in length; not too much hot, not too much cold. As has been said, "This is just right." So another Theme Week! We have weeks devoted to Williams, and weeks devoted to MWF, time to show a whole lotta love to our own JoAnna-made TSD products!!! Pre-shave? You got your TSD Pre-Shave Balm, iced up or not! For the shave? whoo-boy! Shaving soaps and creams with over 80 scents to choose from!! After the shave? There are aftershave, colognes and milks all available to match the soap you just used!! Want a single product to use during all three phases of your shave? TSD M BOMB!!! Add it to your shampoo, your pre-shave oil, your lather bowl, and your aftershave for that wonderful menthol cool!!! If you haven't tried any TSD products you're certainly missing out. JoAnna makes some great stuff. AND by purchasing TSD products you're helping to support our wonderful Shave Den. That's right, moneys that come in from purchases at The Shave Den Store goes to support TSD - nothing goes to the mods, just so you know. For more info, check this out ---> *click* So what'cha usin' this week?
Since I just took delivery of my first two TSD products (yeah, yeah…I know. Long overdue… ), I'm looking forward to putting them to good use this week! Iced SubZero PS balm & the M-bomb menthol additive…..
I've been holding out on using my last couple shaves worth of TSD grapefruit cream until this week. I've also still got about half a tub of Sub Zero cream. So those are what I'll be using this week. TSD products are great. The lather I get from them takes a back seat to nothing and they have given me some of my best shaves. Once I use these up, I'll definitely be ordering some more.
M is for Monday and Menthol and M Bomb! TSD M Bomb 4-5 drops in my palm with my shampoo 2 drops in my palm with my PSO 4 drops in my lather bowl 2 drops in my palm with my aftershave balm Niiiiiiiiice!
Since it's Menthol Monday I started out the week with TSD Sub-zero cream. Wow what a face freezer. That + Ikon Slant and Gillette 7 o'clock yellow = Darn near BBS with no irritation at all.
Put my two TSD products into play this morning…and will probably do the same every morning this week.

I liked the face freeze so much yesterday, I did it again. TSD sub zero this morning too. I might just do it one more time tomorrow. The slickness of TSD cream is really nice. It's probably got more glide to it that anything else I've tried. Nice stuff!
