Thursday's Cold Water Shave

Arko Shave Stick

Fatip Grande
Gillette Silver Blue
CWR
Lilac Vegetal

The Arko Shave Stick lathered well with the Jayaruh 424 Synthetic Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Fatip Grande Razor and a Gillette Silver Blue blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Lilac Vegetal. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

 

Thursday morning:

As the snowstorm goes on…..

L’Oréal Men Expert Facial Wash
Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Super Speed/new Wilkinson Sword
Bundubeard Impi SS
Prep ASB
Floid Vigoroso AS Splash

We’ll be receiving between 15-25 centimetres of snow today so guess what - there’s no way I’m stepping out of the house.

These Bundubeard soaps are really awesome - this Impi has a fantastic scent which is a blend of fruitiness and coffee, its glycerine formula gives it terrific lather which is so thick, rich, creamy, cushiony, and protective, there’s a fairly good amount of menthol in it, and the postshave feeling is very comfortable. The Prep and the Floid Vigoroso aftershave were such a great finish. Thanks to the new Wilkinson Sword blade I had a cracking good easy peasy BBS shave that was such a pleasure!

Enjoy your day and your shaves - be well and stay safe!
