This morning we finally had a warm day. Took the dog on a 2.5 mile walk and got hot. I decided to do a frozen shave. All the software products i used in today's shave were mentholated. The PAA Frost Byte is quite a face freezer. The Osage Rub as my aftershave is a chiller and it smells terrific. I had DFS finish.
