Sunday morning’s Grand Freeze:

Super Speed/Wilkinson Sword day 12
MSC Frosted Spearmint SS
Prep ASB
MSC Frosted Spearmint AS Spray

My brother Fernando’s soaps and aftershaves never cease to amaze me and to freak me out whenever I use them - his Frosted Spearmint is absolutely magnificent. The scent is beautiful - it’s identical to the Stirling Glacial Spearmint except not as intensely mentholated, the tallow formula promotes such awesome lather, there’s indeed more than enough menthol in it to satisfy me, and it’s so skin friendly. The Prep is another South African treasure, and the Frosted Spearmint aftershave has the same gorgeous scent as the soap not to mention how it freezes like a ton of menthol bricks. Smoother than silk from three glorious passes!

Enjoy your Sunday - be well and safe!

Menthol Monday:

What a great Grand Freeze!

Stirling Mentholated Pre Shave Soap
Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Super Speed/Wilkinson Sword day 13
Bundubeard Cool as a Cucumber X 3 SS
Prep ASB
Osage Rub AS Splash

My brother Jaco makes fabulous soaps also - most of them are glycerine based and they have awesome scents with great lather as well as excellent skincare. There are two versions of Cool as a Cucumber and this one is the X 3 variant which has a very high menthol content that’s comparable to the Stirling Glacial soaps. The scent of this soap is very nice - along with the cucumber you also get lots of peppermint, the lather explodes off the brush, the menthol sensation hits like a sledgehammer, and it’s so skin friendly. The Prep and the Rubby Dubby Doo were a perfect finish. Three passes gave me such a dynamite BBS shave which I enjoyed immensely!

Have a good week - be well and safe!
