Stirling Hipster, a great complex blend of scent notes, hard to single each one out, but overall the scent is extremely pleasant
First outing with the Schick Injector and it performed wonderfully! Very smooth and efficient shaver.

I love the idea of a spearmint soap for the scent but without the face freeze and the streaming eyes! :) P.

Maybe try a sample of Dr. Jon's Essentials Eucalyptus and Spearmint, but for me next to the smell, the facefreeze is a treat, after using Ice Tonic Aftershave by SuperLi there are not many (if any) menthol products that can pull tears anymore, that one is for the record books, only apply when you are a serious fan of Menthol, otherwise you will be in dire straits for the rest of the day, for me it is the perfect wake-up treatment, all cloudy thoughts blown out of my head in one fell swoop ;-)

Ha, you still got a Nexus 5x Up and running?
But here is my real question, where did you get the aftershave? I can find no EU source for any Stirling AS or Splash and the US does not allow shipping any :mad:
 
SOTD 16/05 - Face wash with Heana De Pravia ; Barrister & Mann Reserve - Cool ; Giles Shaving Co. Pedestal Bowl ; AP Shave Co. Butterscotch 28mm SilkSmoke ; Pils 101NE ; NOS (Czech) Gillette Red Stainless ; Floid Mentolado Vigoroso

First shave with the Pils and first impressions are it's mild but very efficient and I had no issues finding the angle and it gave a really good shave.

Yes, the Nexus 5X is still going, just about! Now, onto the real answer for your real question: I purchased the Aftersahve from West Coast Shaving via: MYUS.COM
 
Thur 16th May

Cyril Salter/ Maseto ED. 2Band
L`Occitane Cade creak
ATT SE1 /Windrose Handle
Feather Pro [ 5 ]
Puig Quorum A/S Lotion

Did a repeat Shave with the ATT SE1, but used a cream for a change. Creams are just so easy to lather and now I think I prefer soaps. The Shave was very smooth, and with ease I speedily got an excellent close finish, but missed a bit around the lower lip.

Thursday evening

OSP Barbershop
RazoRock Plissoft 24mm synth
Face lather
English Gillette Flat Bed Fat Handle Tech (1948)
Gillette Rubie
Thayer's Rose Petal and Aloe Vera
Fine American Blend after shave

A perfect shave tonight. This is the second outing for my recently acquired Tech and it performs really well. I think, in terms of vintage DEs, the Gillettes are really up there; whether its Techs, Olds, News, Aristocrats, SuperSpeeds or the Adjustables. They all seem to deliver.
