Saturday morning’s Freaky Grand Freeze: Cool shower Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole Super Speed/7 AM day 14 (last day) Stirling Glacial Citron SS Bundubeard Stoffel ASB Stirling Glacial Citron AS Splash OMG, after using a setup like this it’s a miracle that my face didn’t disintegrate because the menthol power is so STRONG. The Glacial Citron soap and aftershave’s scent is delightful - it’s lemony driven but with notes of lime, and tangerine, the soap is a lather monster that has so much slickness, as soon as the brush makes contact with your skin the menthol sensation hits you, and the skincare is typical Stirling perfection. The Stoffel balm provided such moisturizing along with a whopping menthol feeling of its own, and the Glacial Citron aftershave went on frigidly cold. This 7 AM blade is at the end of the road but it gave me one last hoorah with a great three pass BBS shave that I thoroughly enjoyed! Wishing you all a lovely day - be well and stay safe!

Menthol Monday’s Bone Chilling Report: Cool shower Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole Super Speed/7 AM day 2 Stirling Glacial Electric Sheep SS Bundubeard Stoffel ASB Fine Snake Bite AS Splash Versace Eros EdP (sample) Not too much to say besides this shave was beautifully BBS as well as mega frigid. This Versace Eros fragrance……to be honest I don’t think I would want to have it in my rotation so after it’s finished I’ll forget about it. Wishing you all a great week ahead - be well and stay safe!

I'm sure DocEzlovan's Snake Bite is nice and "comfortably" cold, but just the title gives me the creeps.
Don’t you love those lemony scented icicles in your face my friend? Great shave! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Wednesday morning’s Nuclear Grand Freeze: Cool shower Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole Super Speed/7 AM day 4 Stirling Glacial Cedar SS Bundubeard Stoffel ASB Stirling Glacial Cedar AS Splash Azzaro Wanted By Night EdP No fooling around today - it’s going to be 40 Celsius with the humidity factor so it had to be a FRIGID setup. The Glacial Cedar soap and aftershave smell so beautiful and give a menthol sensation that can knock a polar bear on his tukhis. The Wanted By Night fragrance from Azzaro is nice, yes but it’s not something I would buy again. All in all a great three pass BBS shave that was most enjoyable. Off to my pool soon!

Menthol Monday’s Frigid Report: Cool shower Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole Super Speed/7 AM day 2 Stirling Glacial Lemon Chill SS Stirling Glacial Lemon Chill ASB Stirling Glacial Lemon Chill AS Splash Christian Dior Eau Sauvage EdT Cold enough to make a polar bear run away from the Arctic but so enjoyable if you’re a hardcore menthol maniac like little old me - this Glacial Lemon Chill trio is such a delight. I find that the Eau Sauvage fragrance pairs very well with this trio because it’s also lemony based. Three passes delivered such a wonderful BBS shave - wow!!!!!!!

I’m back again with a major Grand Freeze: Cool shower Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole Super Speed/7 AM day 8 Stirling Glacial Strawberry Lemonade SS Bundubeard Stoffel ASB Stirling Glacial Strawberry Lemonade AS Splash I really should have waited until this evening or tomorrow morning to shave because today is Tisha B’av but I have to admit that I was not able to resist. This Glacial Strawberry Lemonade stuff smells so delightful - the strawberry notes seem to be more dominant but the lemony aspect is definitely noticeable. The soap lathers fabulously, there’s so much slickness, the menthol sensation is off the charts, and the postshave feeling is so soothing as well as moisturizing. The Stoffel balm’s peppermint scent is so nice, there’s PLENTY of menthol in it, and you wouldn’t believe how moisturizing it is - it leaves my skin feeling like it was born again. Finally the Glacial Strawberry Lemonade aftershave went on with a POWERFUL menthol kick and its beautiful scent lasts almost all day. It took five, yes FIVE passes to get rid of all my insane stubble. What an awesome BBS shave this and did I ever enjoy it. Wishing you all a great Sunday - be well and stay safe.

Menthol Monday’s Frigid Report: Cool shower Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole Super Speed/7 AM day 9 Stirling Glacial Frozen Tuxedo SS Bundubeard Stoffel ASB Stirling Glacial Frozen Tuxedo AS Splash Not only am I frozen to the max, I also smell beautiful even if I say so myself. The Glacial Frozen Tuxedo soap’s lather buried my face, the slickness was awesome, the menthol sensation was killer cold, and the postshave feeling was A1. The Stoffel balm felt so additionally moisturizing as well as soothing, and the Glacial Frozen Tuxedo aftershave went on bone chillingly cold - the scent lasts almost all day. This morning three passes were enough for a brilliant BBS shave that was absolutely wonderful! Wishing you all a great week ahead - be well and stay safe! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Saturday morning’s Atomic Grand Freeze: Cool shower Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole Super Speed/7 AM day 7 Stirling Glacial Iceberg Island SS Bundubeard Stoffel ASB Stirling Glacial Iceberg Island AS Splash Not only am I frozen stiff and super BBS, I smell so beautiful and sexy! (According to my beautiful wife!) The Glacial Iceberg Island soap and aftershave are two precious treasures - the scent is an exact copy of Virgin Island Water from Creed, the soap delivered tons of magnificent lather that was slick, the menthol sensation was off the charts, the blade glide was superb, and the skincare was wonderful like every Stirling product I’ve used. The Stoffel balm provided plenty of additional menthol goodness along with tons of moisturizing and soothing not to mention how frigid the Glacial Iceberg Island aftershave was - that magnificent scent has terrific staying power. What a brilliant shave this was! Wishing you all a great day - be well and stay safe! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Wednesday morning - close to being a Grand Freeze: Cool shower Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole Super Speed/7 AM day 4 Stirling Frozen Tundra SS Gold Bond Moisturizer Aqua Velva Ice Blue AS Splash This Frozen Tundra is so awesome - it’s the second coldest Stirling soap after the Glacials. The scent is beautiful - it reminds me somehow of the Glacial Wintergreen, just not as intense, its tallow formula promotes fabulous, super slick lather, the menthol sensation is potent, and the skincare is great. The Gold Bond moisturizer gave me plenty of soothing with a nice menthol feeling, and the Aqua Velva aftershave went on icy cold - do I ever love its old school scent. Another terrific three pass BBS shave that I enjoyed immensely! Wishing you all a good day - be well and stay safe! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I just received some PRAIA from Stirling Soap. The aftershave splash, shave soap,, and bath soap, and am over the moon on this awesome scent. My wife and son agree, PRAIA is my all time favorite soap now.
Menthol Monday’s Frigid Announcement: Happy Labour Day Canada! Cool shower Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole Super Speed/7 AM day 9 Stirling Glacial Mango Sunrise SS Gold Bond Moisturizer Floid Vigoroso AS Splash It felt like heaven to start off September with a Grand Freeze - this Glacial Mango Sunrise soap not only smells gorgeous, it lathers wonderfully, it’s so intensely COLD, and it’s so skin friendly like ALL of my Stirling soaps - my dear brother Rod is a soap and aftershave master. The Gold Bond moisturizer works great as a balm, and the Floid Vigoroso aftershave is another menthol atom bomb with such a beautiful old school barbershop scent that I love so much. Another superb three pass BBS shave that I enjoyed from start to finish! Wishing you all a good week ahead - be well and stay safe! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Menthol Monday’s Nuclear Grand Freeze: Cool shower Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole Super Speed/Crystal day 5 Stirling Glacial Electric Sheep SS Gold Bond Moisturizer Floid Vigoroso AS Splash Mama mia, this was the coldest shave I’ve had in a while - the Glacial Electric Sheep did a helluva number on my face. This soap is mutton tallow based, it has the same awesome scent as the regular Electric Sheep soap, the lather is such a pleasure to whip up, the menthol sensation is killer cold like all the Glacials, and the postshave care is superb. The Gold Bond moisturizer gave me plenty of extra soothing, and the Floid Vigoroso aftershave went on frigidly cold along with its delightful old school barbershop scent that I love so much. The Crystal blade helped to deliver a perfect three pass BBS shave that I enjoyed to the max! Wishing you all a great week ahead - be well and stay safe! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

(Even the wife said so!)

The Gold Bond moisturizer has plenty of menthol in it also and it’s so soothing. Finally the Glacial Frozen Tuxedo aftershave went on with two boatloads of frigid menthol and its gorgeous scent.
