Thread: Menthol Mondays

So how did you shake off the weekend and get ready for the work week?

My Menthol Monday consisted of a menthol preshave (Noxema) then onto a mentholated shave soap ( Stirling Soap Company Margaritas in the Arctic), then the finisher was some Aqua Velva Blue with Margaritas in the Arctic post shave balm.
I am ready as a can get for a snow flurry filled Monday.
Have a great day.
Cheers

I'm in, but you are going to have to send a bump-up on Sunday until this becomes a habit...

I'm thinking the QCS Vostok - I have a big sample of Yeti Snot and if I try it again I am going got wear swim goggles...

Do we have a "Williams Wednesday?"

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...

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.
Cheers,

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

No picture today.

Sterling Margaritas in the Arctic uberlathered with AOS unscented cream. I find it makes the lather last otherwise straight soaps breakdown before I am done.

I bought some Sterling Black Ice and like it a lot but what to do for AS or cologne is an issue...

No pictures because I have done a repeat of last week.
That PREP Menthol is just that wonderful...

So get ready now for MWFat Tuesday...

Smooth shaving...

No done playing in the "menthol field" yet. Just ordered a sample of Stirling Glacial Obsidian...

So my menthol monday consisted of trying out a new A/S that I had never heard of. I just moved and went to the Publix near my new house. I was looking for vitamins and found this bottle that looked kinda like A/S and really the only thing that made me think it was A/S was that it said "Alcolado Menthol". No where on the bottle does it say it is A/S. Anyways it was "Superior 70" brand and it has alcohol menthol camphor and pine needle oil and eucalyptus oil. This is probably one of my more favorite A/S's now and is great feeling. It is just starting to get cool down here and I love the feeling of a brisk day with menthol A/S to make it brisker. The only thing I would have to complain about is the camphor is quite overpowering.
