Re: Electric Razor Rap

Re: Review of the "new" Mitchell's Woolfat
From the ingredients list, aren't sodium laurate and potassium laurate detergents?

Re: Cats
I'm a cat person, too. My Joey is twelve years old and he was a rescue. Someone dumped him, as a small kitten, in the parking lot at work. A coworker found him and brought him right to me. He appeared to have been weened and separated from the litter early, as he tried to nurse on any loose skin and...

Re: Cream versus Soap?
It seems you timed it well for quality products. Though not as extensive as your collection, I really liked Valobra shaving soap, so I have a pretty good hoard of their shave sticks, later cakes, and Valobra-made Art of Shaving cakes. I also have a hoard of razor blades that I'll never get through i...
