    My schedule has been less than kind lately. It wasn't exactly Monday, but Tuesday is a good day for the Menthol as well;

    And this is what well bloomed Proraso Green gives you;

    In the VDH bowl I put the bloom water. I use it as a pre-shave and the water to build the lather. Good God, it makes for a great lather and a great shave.

    Yours isn't bad either. Are you using the Proraso Cream there as a Pre or Post Shave?

    6631AE76-6BC0-4D9A-99B2-69762C0BEC21.jpeg Menthol Monday:

    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Super Speed/new Wilkinson
    Stirling Glacial Eskimo Tuxedo SS
    Stirling Glacial Unscented ASB
    B&M Arctique AS Splash

    What a difference a day makes - 24 little hours!

    After the debacle of yesterday this shave today was magnificent. The new Wilkinson blade in my Super Speed slaughtered all that stubble and left me absolutely BBS. The Glacial Eskimo Tuxedo soap lathered so rich, with that typical Stirling slickness which made the blade skate over my face, that gorgeous scent filled my bathroom, and the menthol sensation pummeled me non stop. The Glacial Unscented balm and the Arctique aftershave took that freeze to another level. I was enjoying myself so much that I did three passes, so I wouldn’t waste that lovely lather and freeze. It felt so good to be so smooth!

    Arctique is a Canadian product right? I know Booster is.

    Nope. Arctique is made in the good old US of A by Barrister & Mann.
