    A tip for all you cold water fans, refrigerating your PSO, witch hazel and after shave is great. Do not refrigerate your M-Bomb however, it partially freezes.

    Good morning friends. Today was my first shave with the TSD SS and it was great, nice slick, easy to lather with a mint scent and super duper cold! :smiley freezing: Another wonderful smooth shave with the N1, man these razor are fun and zippy to shave with. Extremely easy to maneuver. Beautiful freezing finish with my MITA balm. Have a great shave and a great day guys. :happy069:

    Good morning gentlemen. A real face freeze today only heightened by the 2x iced SubZero Shave Stick. Shave sticks rock, as a face latherer they are perfect for my needs. I made a Stirling Cocoa Forest shave stick with a near empty deodorant container i found here and i may use it tomorrow. The R41 delivered in true fashion as always and after three passes i'm beyond dolphin smooth. MITA balm finished this wonderful shave with more arctic temperatures and after 20 minutes my face is still frozen. :Animatedfrozensmily:Have a great shave and a wonderful day guys. :)

    Good morning friends. Wonderful shave this morning with the R41 made even more special due to a lovely gifted homemade citrus scented PSO from my good friend Ben aka @ob1page. The smell is delightful and the protection is outstanding! I refrigerated it overnight so it was like shaving with a orange popsicle. It just made my rotation. :love029: Thank you Ben! Ladas are outstanding, they always get the job done in style. Mita balm finished the freeze off beautifully and all is good. Off to the post office to send my friend CJ aka @whiteboy_cannon a soap and i'll be receiving a Schick E2 injector in return. Have a wonderful shave and an equally wonderful day guys. :happy005:

    First ice water shave down! Loving it! Used my Stirling mountain man and it was a great feeling. Next I'm going all out with Stirling frozen tundra and ice water!

    Good morning friends. Everything came together this morning for a superb shave. I decided to revisit the Astra SP in my R41 today and they worked liked a champ. I was reminded today why Route 66 Lumberjack :love029:is my favorite soap in my den. I have a few respectable soaps and creams now and i can say with certainty that nothing compares, it blows them all outta the water! I highly encourage my friends here to give the Lumberjack or any Route 66 soap a try. If you want the best it's right here at your door step. Dolphin smooth, dapper and happy! Have a wonderful shave and a wonderful day guys. :happy005:

    I keep doing cold water shaves, but I keep forgetting to use the logo. Anyways, the cold water seems to help ittitation.

    Tonight's freezing shave. Everything has m-bomb in it. Let me say that 6 drops of m-bomb in MITA is flipping FREEZING. Even put a drop in the water with my brush WOW...

    Beautiful photo again! How do you achieve that awesome glossy look, is it a filter? Looking super vascular bro, that cutting diet must be on point!

    Yes it's a filter from snapseed. Thanks BTW is getting close only about two weeks to go.

    Also lime sec with osage rub is a great pairing with this soap.
