    Thank you Sir!
    You are embarrassing me: I'm a shy old gent!
    (However... I admit Sergio il Magnifico would sound great for a medieval warlord! :D)

    Monday

    Prep: Warm Shower-Stirling Scots Pine Sheep
    Soap: Stirling Gentleman
    Razor: Vintage Gillette NEW Short Comb
    Blade: Vintage Gillette Platinum Plus (13)
    Brush: Stirling Boar-24mmx57mm

    WTG-XTG-ATG (adjusted angles for my beard)

    Stirling Gentleman today. 20 seconds to load Stirling Boar brush. Easy, thick, slick, lather. Vintage Gillette Platinum Plus still in the Gillette NEW Short Comb. Excellent smooth, close, shave. I finished with Stirling Gentleman aftershave.

    E814457A-7CC6-42B9-9F31-613242F16E77.jpeg Menthol Monday:

    Stirling Mentholated Pre-Shave Soap
    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Super Speed/Shark day 2
    Stirling Glacial Obsidian SS
    Prep ASB
    Alcolado Glacial Menthol Splash
    Bleu de Chanel EdP

    Despite the chilly weather here I still wanted to get my menthol fix and this setup sure gave it to me big-time. Even the mentholated pre-shave soap felt cold and it left a terrific slickness on my face when I rinsed it off. The Glacial Obsidian soap’s black licorice scent is so beautiful, the lather worked up so rich, not to mention super-slick, and the menthol sensation was so potent that it felt almost painful but in a good way, of course. The Prep added plenty of extra chill along with its famous soothing, and the Alcolado Glacial Splash has a nice scent which never disrupts a fragrance - man oh man is it ever frigid. Three passes cleaned me up great and left me dolphin smooth!

    Have a wonderful week!

    Menthol Monday's Shave
    zcws.jpg

    Cold Water Rinse
    Fine Snake Bite
    TOST LE
    TNNSER 3D
    Gem CS SE
    CWR
    Osage Rub

    My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Fine Snake Bite Shave Soap face lathered well with the TOST LE Brush. I did two passes with the TNNSER 3D razor with a Gem CS SE 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...

    SuperMax Menthol isn't as menthylated as you may think. The hair tonic had more Menthol.

    There's Modern Williams, and then there's everything else.
