Thread: Menthol Mondays

It may be too late for our Brothers Down Unda...
But think about starting the week with Menthol Monday...

Smooth Shaving...

My first Menthol Monday...
QCS Vostok, 1800, Wade & Butcher Celebrated Hollow Ground...and the Barbasol was left over from some other challenge...
Nice shave even with the stop at full lather to take a phone call from Germany (no rest for the wicked as they say) my eyes where watering by the time that was over...

Smooth Shaving...

Yep! Got me some of that Yeti Snot; thought my face was going to freeze up and I was going to have to chisel my beard off, made my eyes water and sure did loosen those sinus's up. The best I can explain how cold this stuff is........fall face first into a foot of snow and stay there for 5 - 10 minutes......its that cold! I think I'll try mine again next summer when the weather warms up, should feel nice after a long, hot day doing yard work......

I have a sample that I tried 1x... I will set it up for next Monday, maybe it has off-gassed a bit...that stuf has WMD written all over it.

Vostok is brisk, refreshing....

Yeti Snot is as subtle as a pistol in your face...to borrow from a line from Muddy Waters....

The Soap came with a razor from one of the members...
And it is a repeat...

Gillette Menthol Shaving Cream followed by Myrsol after shave....

Upon waking this morning I face washed with some Noxzema. Then I used my 24mm boar brush to face lather Stirling's Glacial Wintergreen Shave Soap. My incredibly close shave came from my only razor, a Razor Rock Mission loaded up with a well used but still sharp Astra blade. To lock in the face icicles I used one of my favorites, Aqua Velva Blue followed up with Stirling's Margaritas in the Arctic post shave balm. Thirteen hours later and I can still touch my face and feel a cold blast.

Why would I want to use that when I use the stuff that made the Yeti's nose run in the first place.

This Glacial Wintergreen is slowly becoming one of my favorites. Using it this morning made the razor feel like a seal sliding down a snow covered slope. So smooth. Then followed up with the usual cast of characters, Aqua Velva Blue and Margaritas in the Arctic balm. What a fantastic shave this morning.

Country Club Souther Oud today. I am really liking it. It goes very well with my Stirling Ozark Mountain shave soap.
