So the PREP came up next for Menthol Monday and I like this more each time I use it...
So of course they are going to stop making it...

Picture from a few weeks ago with the same setup -

And a shout out to jsuiters for getting this started, a great way to start Monday..

Thank you,
I just couldn't think of a better way to shake a weekend hangover on Monday morning than freezing my face.

thanks

They currently have none of their Glacial strength soaps listed. I queried them about Glacial Obsidian and they said they would be relisting it after Christmas. They make more than a few Glacial soaps and are going to rotate the production due to stock storage issues. Bottom line, if you want a specific Glacial soap buy enough to last a while since it may not come around in their rotation for a few months.

I got my order in last night before bed. They only had something like 7 pucks of it. One each of the Bay Rum, Margaritas in the Arctic and Glacial Obsidian, I doubt that I will need any more soap in 2015.

Thanks for the heads up - I got a puck of Glacial Obsidian....

Both, the Margaritas in the Arctic and Bay Rum, are in my weekly rotation. If you haven't tried the AS Balm, I highly recommend it.
I will let this be the last "praise Stirling Soap" commercial post and get back to Menthol Mondays. I might even have time for a picture this week.

This Monday was...PREP Menthol, Mennen Pacific Breeze and the razor was Ralf Aust 7/8 American Point, and it was good..

I used my usual stuff; Glacial Wintergreen, Aqua Velva Blue, And Margaritas in the Arctic balm but did do the cold water shave. Refreshing to say the least.
It just didn't seam like the shave was as smooth with cold water. I know quite a few of you shave with cold water and get fantastic results. I didn't.

Just a few changes...
Two days of growth on the beard, and reminded of how unlike the Cart, the Straight excels at mowing down a heavy beard..
Still the Prep/Barbasol combo but the Robert Williams 7/8 gets the Menthol Monday honors..and does it well.

Other soaps and AS are on the way...

Smooth Shaving...Monday is just a little bit better when it's Menthol Monday...
