    Menthol Monday:

    What a Grand Freeze this was!

    Stirling Mentholated Pre Shave Soap
    Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
    Super Speed/King C. Gillette day 6
    Stirling Glacial Eskimo Tuxedo SS
    Stirling Glacial Unscented ASB
    Fine Snake Bite AS Splash
    Bleu de Chanel Deodorant Stick
    Bleu de Chanel Parfum

    Man oh man I wish that Rod hadn’t discontinued the Glacial Eskimo Tuxedo because it’s such an awesome soap. The scent is so gorgeous, it’s such a pleasure to lather, it’s so slick, the menthol sensation is enough to freeze a polar bear out of the North Pole, and the postshave feeling is wonderful. The Glacial Unscented balm and the Snake Bite aftershave are two fabulous menthol atom bombs with great skincare also. This shave was nothing short of perfection - am I ever BBS!

    Have a good week - be well and safe!

    Maybe Smitty just faked the opium part, to get people reading the description. The Saddle leather and gunpowder are what attracts me.

    Razor: Gem junior bar lather catcher- Mfg 1907-11, excellent tame mid range(mild?) with a new blade this baby performs nicely, it is just a nice razor to use if you like Gem razors period. Well built to last, great audio feedback, space age technology for it time era with the skin tension bar which was replaced with a top cap eventually. Gem seemed to have great ideas with their razors.
    Blade: Gem Personna SS PTFE(1) Very sharp blade, great longevity, smooths out nicely + predictable.
    Soap: Razorock Irish Countryside, mild scent with excellent lather qualities. Nice soap.(Misted)
    Brush: Yaqi 2band badger with barber pole handle(nice hand ergonomics), excellent lather generator, pillow like soft tips, nice scrubber, + excellent lather painter.
    Pre shave: Brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser + a dollop of clear Aloe Vera gel on the cleaned beard area.
    Prep: Cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pickups.
    Post shave: Razorock XXX with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizer lotion (balm) + scentless.
    Results: CCS,DFS,BBs + no irritation + no weepers = [​IMG]Excellent shave with my Gem junior bar with a gem coated blade.
