    It takes a really Krazy Cracky Wacky Ticky Tacky Menthol Monkey like myself to choose a set-up like this. Everything from the Neutrogena facial wash to the Snake Bite aftershave is bone-chillingly COLD and I mean COLD! ;) :D

    Monday's
    ZCOLDWATER1.jpg

    Dove Men Face Wash
    Saponificio Varesino Dolomiti Shave Soap (first shave)
    Jayaruh #31 2-band Finest (first shave)
    Micromatic OC
    GEM Stainless
    CWR, Asma Alum Block
    Thayers Rose Petal WH
    Pinaud Clubman AS

    The Saponificio Varesino Dolomiti Shave Soap face-lathered well with my Jayaruh #31 two-band finest badger brush. It has a light scent and lathers very easily. Two passes with my Micromatic OC Razor and a GEM Stainless blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, alum block, and a final cold water rinse, I finished off with Thayers Rose Petal WH and then Pinaud Clubman after shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    I don't think the soap got better,

    Still the shave was good. Then there's The Veg.
