Good Morning to All!
~03/19/2012~

Semogue Owner's Club | EJ DE89BChrome w/ Red IP | Proraso Crema Pre E Dopo Barba | ARKO | Nivea Replenishing Post Shave Balm


I've really grown to like ARKO and is a very supreme performer. With its pledge like citrusy scent with Proraso preshave made it a refreshing mentholated shave. I believe all of my shaves are refreshing due to the characteristics in Proraso's Preshave which I just truly love (I got the big tub! Now I just wondering what to use tomorrow, maybe MdC Unscented or MWF. Anyways, I hope you all have a great day my friends on this wonderful spring day!

Brush: 24mm Silvertip in American Ash
Uber: TOBS Eton College
AS: Alum + Pinaud Lilac Vegetal
EdC: Stetson
Result: Excellent 3 pass shave!! This edge is amazing. She needs a little cleanup and polish, but that sure doesn't detract from a great shave! The Pinaud Lilac Vegetal cools and refreshes me wonderfully. First a little sting, then a cooling sensation. Love it! Although sometimes I do think it smells somewhat of Urinal Cakes!! LOL

Myrsol Formula C + 444 Balm

What can I say but an excellent, close, smooooooth and yes refreshing shave...The addition of 444 to practically all A/S including the mentholated ones like the Myrsol I used today gives it that "icy oomph" to all...besides it really conditions the face and does not leave it greasy.
