Todah Rabah, Akhi! Yes, a mentholated shave in the hot weather is fantastic. I have 1 soap with heavier menthol, Subtle Art Soap Co's Arctic Blast. A great soap with a chilly outcome. I am looking at getting a few from Stirling.

Shabbat Shalom!
I strongly recommend the Stirling Glacials. They’re all menthol monsters with beautiful scents as well as great performance my Lantsman!

Once again Shabbat Shalom!

Another amazing head shave with the Mach III. A very enjoyable no drama BBS experience. Both the Mach III and Trac II are going to be mainstays. Wishing everyone a great day.

Excellent head shave, Akhi! A drama free shave is what everyone hopes for.

Todah! I was thinking about Glacial Lemon Chill, & Glacial Mango Sunrise. Also in their normal level of menthol Orange Chill, Margaritas In Arctic, & Iced Pineapple. I wish they released Glacial Citron this year... oh well, maybe next year.

Have a good night and peaceful Shabbat.

Saturday's Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Williams Mug Shave Soap
Jayaruh #425 Synthetic
Pal Injecto-Matic
Vintage PAL Blade
CWR
Brut After Shave

I started with the cold water rinse. The Williams lathered well with the Jayaruh #425. I did one quick pass with the Pal Injecto-Matic razor with a Vintage PAL Blade. After a cold water rinse, I finished with Brut After Shave. I am now clean, smooth, and refreshed.
 
Saturday morning’s Heavy Duty Grand Freeze:

Cool shower
Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Super Speed/Super Platinum day 8
Stirling Glacial Frozen Tuxedo SS
Gold Bond Moisturizer
Stirling Glacial Frozen Tuxedo AS Splash

For anyone who loves the Green Irish Tweed fragrance from Creed or Sharp Dressed Man from Stirling and if you’re into INTENSE menthol like I am this Glacial Frozen Tuxedo soap and aftershave are for you. What a brilliant three pass BBS shave this was and did I ever enjoy it!

Wishing you all a great day - be well and stay safe!
