    How many drops should be added to shave cream or soap for an ice cold result? Just an innocent newbie question!

    5 drops gives you a menthol effect about equivalent to a Stirling Glacial soap.

    I find 2-3 drops give me a wonderful cooling sensation. Not face freezing, but very refreshing.

    You, too? I've been experimenting with menth crystals.
    Haven't tried the drops yet.

    Start with 1 and move up... You can always add more, but not remove it once started.

    ‘Meth Crystals?’ Do you mean menthol crystals?

    Our friend @BlueShaver has discovered the FTFY (Fixed That For You) Option when quoting folks. ;)

    Having reached that point in my life where being gainfully employed is optional & urine tests less often - I'll never tell. Did I mention My daughter (and three children with an aggregate age of nineteen) joined my household a year ago? Down side of meth, I hear, is you pay for the UP time with Down time. I'm too old to do that. If I want heart palpitations and dizziness I just stand up too fast.

    Does anyone mix M-Bomb with Aftershave or preshave? Just wondering?

    Enjoy your shaves,

    I just picked up Stirling version of m bomb and I added it to my aqua velva and skin bracer, I have always felt vintage versions of these had more cooling effect. I added 15 drops to each bottle and it seems to work great.
