What great choices of soaps!

With what's in the post and what's just arrived you're currently in a SAD mode huh? [emoji13]

It looks that way

I did trade 4 of them though.

Nothing wrong with a little SAD; it's fairly contagious but it supports the economy. [emoji106]

Use your B&M. It contains silk too.

Did this morning mate. Was quite nice but will shine in summer! Also B&M certainly likes being well charged up!

My 'Beard brushes' arrived from Chinese eBay seller. Well, I think @Steve_M got a better deal than I did, mine did not even come with the cellophane bag!! Horrible things, although definitely firmer than the Plissitane. Will give one a run at some stage.

Seller has just come back to me with a $4 compensation offer. Told her I don't want money, I want representative pictures of what they are selling on the listing, or it will be a Neg from me.

At least it was still better than this horrible looking excuse of a lathering instrument.

At least that is an HONEST pic!

Be interesting to see if it justifies the high cost... Seems to have some nice ingredients. Let us know what you think. [emoji106]

See SOTD thread, I'm not impressed by it so far.

Yeah. I saw. That's the word I've been hearing about it. Sorry that you've had to take one for the team. Thanks.

I am seriously going to have to go through my soaps and place some on the under used soaps for sale

You could also bring them along to the next Sydney shave meet for trades. [emoji6]

Leresche #61 set

Same head as the #51 but a much lighter handle (not as thick).

I'll be watching keenly. Sprung and poised.

Good Idea. Might need to swap some for after shave samples as I will still have too much soap

By the way Caties Bubble Knee High to a Grape smells like Hubba Hubba from Shaver Heaven.

Shave stuff this month.

Standard razor (cheap from massdrop)
100x Voskhod
2x Shaver Heaven

Trying to keep this hobby in check. As such, I will not buy anything else for the rest of the month.

Dr Jons Big Green Monster arrived today. Smells a bit like the bobbly ones in liquorice all sorts.

Nice to see such restraint not to buy anything more for one day
