Menthol Monday's Shave


Cold Water Wash
C.O. Bigelow
B-400 by Tom
Gillette New Improved
Gillette Super Thin
CWR
Osage Rub

My prep was just a cold water rinse. The C.O. Bigelow Shave Cream face lathered well with the B-400 Brush by Tom. I did two passes with the Gillette NEW Improved Razor with a Gillette Super Thin DE blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Osage Rub. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

My Menthol Monday outing:

Stirling Mentholated Pre-Shave Soap
Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
Super Speed/Wilkinson day 2
Bundubeard Kameelperd's Kick SS
Gold Bond Moisturizer
B+M Arctique AS Splash
Eau Sauvage EdT

I enjoyed this Kameelperd soap so much last time that I couldn't think of waiting until next week before using it again - do I ever love the Arctic blast it gives me well as the scent and the lather. The Arctique aftershave is so well-named. BBS in three wonderful passes!

Henri et Victoria Nautilus today. 20 seconds to load the Honey Farm Designs/TGN Premium Silvertip brush. Easy, thick, slick, lather. I loaded a new Personna Med Prep in the Gillette NEW Long Comb. Excellent smooth, close, shave. I finished with Country Club Classic Fougere aftershave.

IT'S A WILLIAMS WEEK!!!!

Schick E3 razor
Personna blade
Vie-Long Silver Tip brush
Williams SS w/M-Bomb
Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
Clubman Reserve Whisky Woods A/S

Decided I needed a Williams week and this is it. Nice start with a fine shave with the above listed items. Been trying some new A/S from Clubman and really liking them. My bride particularly likes the Whiskey Woods and I do too. Anyway, my face is happy so go enjoy your day folks

 

I think Whiskey Woods will be part of my "Pinaud Purchase Package of 2019".

 

It's a great shaver for the price. I enjoy using mine.

 

Thurday and Friday Night - I used the aluminum RazoRock HAWK V2, but this time I used new aquired Blades - the FEATHER Super PRO - wich are more agressive - I found the shaves with the Proline way to mild on the HAWK, but with the Feather Super PRO - it was a much better shave!! on par with the General loaded with a proline->
