@SydBJW - I just tried the splash - good for clearing the sinus' though! I quite like it.

+1 same here too when using Nivea Original, Sensitive and Speck aftershave splash, keep in mind it doesn't help to most men only some who doesn't have sensitive smell.

Not only the AS, but the soap makes me tear as well; sometimes it even makes the nose runny!

Soap I can handle :)

Is their a colder soap or aftershave in wet shaving? I doubt it. It anyone that knows one let me know.

Post: Myrsol Antesol and Emulsion
Splash: B&M Arctique

39C in Perth today, and 40C tomorrow. Hence, I feel the need, the need for freeze.......
A shoutout to @eggbert and @Sxot for getting my mind back to menthol.
To be truthful, I didn't quite get the lather right with the SH soap, which is indeed a sin. 3 passes for a DFS+, but with a bit of burn on the neck.
Quickly rectified by the Myrsols.
If there are any typos in the post, it is due to my watering eyes after applying the Arctique. The chill is very welcome, however.
 
Every shave I have with this Cosmo combo the more and more I like it. Truly awesome shave and my face feels awesome after 4 passes just to use up the luxurious lather and an awesome BBS shave to boot :sneaky: New blade and no irritation whatsoever, normally I get a bit of irritation if I go any more than 3 passes but nope nothing with this combo

Preshave: Hot water splash
Razor/Blade: Rockwell 6S set on 3 & Perma Sharp (New Blade)
Brush: TF Custom Silvertip
Soap: Cosmo Triple Milled
Post shave: Hotwater splash, then Cold Water Splash. Cosmo Face Serum
Aftershave: Cosmo

Post-shave: Pitralon Original



Very international shave on a very Australia Day!

Interesting 'story' around the Pitralon brand here - http://pitralon.com/en/about-pitralon/

'The 1970s arrived and more suppliers of after shave appeared on the market. The emphasis was more on the perfume than on the effect of the products. The Pitralon eau de toilette lost some of its prominence and was mainly found in the professional circuit (hairdressers, specialist shops).'

Of course all of us are looking for BOTH the perfume and the effect!

Have a good one guys :)

Australian Private Reserve les généraux du grand lvre Aftershave

A truly excellent soap, a little scent but the performance is first class, cushion, glide and slickness are fantastic and I am most glad I have added it to the roster. Two passes as per the norm and a nice rinse off and on with the GL balm and splash to complete a very relaxed, enjoyable shave.
