    Proraso Pre Shave
    Tabac Shaving Soap
    Jayaruh #284
    English Ever-Ready SE Razor
    GEM CS SE
    CWR
    Thayers Peach WH
    Tabac AS

    I started off with Proraso Pre Shave. The Tabac Shaving Soap face-lathered well with the Jayaruh #284 Synthetic brush. I did two passes with the English Ever-Ready SE Razor with a GEM CS SE blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Thayer's Peach WH and then Tabac AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Hey guys - may I present you my Tuesday SOTD:

    L'Oreal Men Expert Facial Wash
    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Super Speed/Wilkinson day 4
    Stirling Glacial Obsidian SS
    Stirling Glacial Obsidian ASB
    Fine Snake Bite AS Splash
    Quorum EdT

    Another sweltering hot day meant another ice-cold shave and this setup did the trick. I had two boatloads of menthol freeze from the Glacial Obsidian soap along with plenty of rich, slick, lovely lather that gave me that beautiful black licorice scent I love so much and such great post-shave care. The matching balm has that same scent as well as plenty of iciness. The Snake Bite is also freezing cold and unscented so it doesn't disrupt a fragrance. BBS in three delightful passes!

    Enjoy your day!

    Thanks Andrew. It's very hot and humid but we are staying at the beach and the ocean is helping with that dilemma. :happy069:
