    The TSD Killer Queen Shaving Cream face-lathered well with my Jayaruh #133 silvertip badger brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Gillette Slim with a Wilkinson Sword Super Sword-Edge 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 Aqua Velva Musk After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Mon 28th Nov

    RazoRock Plissoft 22mm
    OSP Bay Run soap
    Ideal [Russian] DE Adjustable
    Lab Blue [ 5 ]
    Alum Rub/Rinse off
    Quorum A/S lotion

    To complete my round of Shaves with DE Adjustables [ Progress,Futur, Fat Boy, Slim ] , I dug out a Russian one, modelled on Super Adj /Slim ?. Not at all sure how it would go, so started with too low a setting. settled in the end
    for a 6. The razor feels very mild, and the shave was very smooth and comfortable. With polishing strokes easy to do
    got a more than acceptable close shave , except around the neck where I may have been a bit cautious. Pleased to say no mishaps or post shave problems.

    A great shave this morning certainly eased the transition back to reality after a long holiday weekend. Three passes and minimal touch ups ended in a near BBS. I finished off the shave with a splash of Floid Blue. I hope everyone has a great Monday.

    Menthol Monday
    I went into the cold this morning, starting with Cryogen pre shave gel. This stuff just keeps getting colder after each pass, even though I don't apply any more in between passes. Renegade Atelier makes a solid soap - excellent lather, subtle scent. There is plenty of residual slickness - I made some touch ups with no problem without adding lather. I finished up with GG Spice Grenade which also includes a nice menthol kick to go with the great scent.

    Prep: Chiseled Face Cryogen
    Soap: Renegade Atelier Frozen Pineapple
    Brush: Brothers Bristles Bronze Shadow
    Razor: Merkur Futur on six
    Blade: voskhod
    AS: Ginger's Garden Spice Grenade

    This Renegade Atelier is a soap that is not seen very much around here. Glad to hear it is a good soap with residual slickness.

    Talking about Menthol Monday, if this shave was any colder my face would have fallen off or gotten freezerburn. The Glacial Eskimo Tuxedo soap - guys, I'm not kidding - it's a match for the Cryogen in menthol power. It also lathers much better and easier, it has the beautiful Sharp Dressed Man scent, and it leaves the skin feeling moisturized and comfortable. The Diana balm felt almost as frigid as the Snake Bite aftershave, so my face will need all day to thaw out. What a great BBS shave! :happy088: :happy088:
