    Happy 4th of July, my dear friends in the States!

    As always my kick-off starts with an arctic freeze - here it is!

    I'll be using my tried and trusty Super Speed again with a Shark, which is an Egyptian-made blade. It performs quite well although the longevity is not quite as good as what you'd get from an Astra or a Derby. The Glacial MITA soap, Diana balm, and the Arctique aftershave are all killer-cold and awesome! ;) :D

    Jayaruh #81 Silvertip
    Gillette Fatboy
    Astra SP
    CWR, Asma Alum Block
    T.N. Dickinson's WH
    Florida Water

    The Mitchell's Wool Fat Shaving Soap face-lathered well with my Jayaruh #81 silvertip brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Gillette Fatboy razor with an Astra SP blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse and alum block, I finished off with T.N. Dickinson's WH and then Florida Water Cologne. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    A great shave for the Fourth. The MW Eucalyptus & Spearmint soap lathered up into a nice slick lather. I really enjoy the scent and the cooling effect. A 3 pass shave and minimal touch ups ended in a near BBS shave. I finished the shave off with with a splash of Floid Blue. I hope that everyone has a great Monday and a Happy Fourth of July.
