    Right. I came across a site that automatically sends you stuff month;ly. Fancy aftershaves, colognes, that sort of thing. Course you have to tell 'em which one(s)you want.

    Friday's Cold Water Shave

    Cold Water Rinse
    Arko Shave Stick
    Jayaruh #424 Synthetic
    Yaqi ShaDE Razor with Bulldog Handle
    Gillette Silver Blue Half
    CWR
    Clubman Pinaud Lilac Vegetal After Shave

    The Arko Shave Stick lathered well with the Jayaruh #424 Synthetic brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Yaqi ShaDE Razor with Bulldog Handle and a Gillette Silver Blue Half DE Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Clubman Pinaud Lilac Vegetal After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Another cracker of a shave my friend!

    It’s really a damned shame that Nanny closed her shop…..her stuff was so good.

    Friday morning’s lemony scented Grand Freeze:

    L’Oréal Men Expert Facial Wash
    Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
    Junjie/Rapira day 12
    Stirling Glacial Lemon Chill SS
    Stirling Glacial Lemon Chill ASB
    Stirling Glacial Lemon Chill AS Splash
    Christian Dior Eau Sauvage EdT

    Wowzer, my brother Rod sure whipped up a winner when he created the Glacial Lemon Chill series - the scent is absolutely heavenly, the soap’s tallow formula gives it such MAGNIFICENT lather that explodes off the brush, the slickness makes the razor skate across my face and neck, the menthol sensation is killer cold, and the skincare is so brilliant. The matching balm and aftershave have the same delightful scent as well as lots of frigid moisturizing and soothing. Three passes gave me a helluva BBS shave which was so pleasurable!

    Enjoy your weekend - be well and safe![​IMG]
