I see you have a few Semogue brushes.
How do you find them?
I like them a lot but I do not have a badger.
Only SOC boar and Mistura👍🏻.
Both excellent 👍🏻

Depends on where you look online, always keep an eye out for a special deal, and be very careful with International postage cost which can be very expensive for one brush.

Hi all, Good shave this evening with the HD500 and a new Astra blade.
After a nice hot shower I lathered up the Omega soap it had a a nice on the face feel.
But little to no scent considering its made with eucalyptus oil. (apparently)
One pass wtg one atg to touch up dun.

“Keep un eye out for a special deal”

This is a horrible, horrible advice as that is the way to spend even more😂. The more I look, the more things I need😂😂😂.
Than I save 15% but buy 5 things instead of one😂
