SOTD "Free Week" - 28 January - 3 February 2013

[BRuhling]

Gentlemen, firstly let me apologize for the delay in opening the thread. Secondly, allow me to apologize for my relatively infrequent posting of late. As happens from time to time with all of us, work seems to have gotten the better of me and likely will do so for the next few weeks as I prepare for a significant jury trial. Rest assured that while I have not been posting frequently, I have been taking tremendous refuge in the pleasure of seeing the phenomenal submissions you all make each day. The excellent and artistic manner in which you all share this rather peaceful part of your daily ritual is truly awe inspiring. Thank you all!

All of that said, it's time to start off the new week:

Shave of the Day (SOTD) Merkur/Menthol Monday January 28, 2013

• Prep: Brush soaked in cold water, tepid shower, face washed with Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash
• Razor: Merkur Mergress XL
• Blade: Voskhod Teflon Coated (2)
• Brush: GDCarrington Maple Apple Brush with Ace Shaving 22mm High Density Silvertip
• Cream: Proraso Menthol and Eucalyptus (old formula) with added menthol
• Soap: Proraso Menthol and Eucalyptus (new formula) with added menthol
• AS: Aqua Velva Classic Ice Blue with added menthol
• Post: Cold Water Rinse, obscene amount of aftershave

Über-lather of the Proraso in the tub and tube with menthol infused glycerin has become my go to for menthol Monday's. Nice and cold, plenty of slickness, and good cushion.

The Voskhod performed good in the Mergress, although I am not sure if any better than less expensive blades.

It is back up to 44°F (6.7°C) which is way too balmy for this time of the year, had to get my freeze on.
