Hi, I have kept my OB and am still very happy with it. It is very easy to get a BBS shave from but I can achieve this with one of my other 20 or so DE’s, but that has taken many years of wet shaving trial and error to get to that stage. With a OB it’s just like picking up any cartridge razor in term...

I’m watching this Topic with real interest , I bought the One Blade razor and I am very happy with it, but the one thing that worries me is the fact that it looked like only the Feather blades were compatible. I am finding that the Feather blades last about 3 shaves a bit like the feather DE blade. ...

Your welcome, I agree as well its one of the best if not the best after shave balms around. I really like this product.

Hi, I have actually refrigerated this product (both the unscented and the scented) for over 12 months with no problems at all. I did this due to buying in bulk as the shipping to Australia was expensive. I have also done this with other balms and again seen no degradation in performance , consistenc...

Has anybody else seen the latest product offering from Crabtree & Evelyn ? They have a new scent out “West Indian Limes” . There is a Shaving soap, shaving cream and aftershave balm as well as a cologne. I received a travel pack as a gift and will let you know what I think once I have used it . ...

I have just purchased both the DR Harris Pink and Milk. I have to say I am disappointed in both. drmoss summary is very accurate and the smell of the milk is very artificial and also reminds me of a baby lotion smell. It works though !. The Pink has been discussed lots here and is very popular with ...

Hi, I agree with what the others are saying and if you are using a Shaving brush it is a waste of time using oil. However Shaving Oil works ok on its own if you are in a real hurry and don’t have time for proper prep. For me it is a better option that Canned goop on its own. It also could be benefic...

I am a fan of the T&H UC cream so I bought the balm as well. My take on it is as follows. The scent is a nice light lavender and the balm is fairly heavy in consistency. I have sensitive skin as well and this is the reason I did not get on with the balm and ended up giving it away , it contains ...

And I am looking forward to it, thanks

I got this razor direct from Ikon a week ago, It really is a fine razor, well made, solid and although I have not handled a Pils I like the knurling on the Ikon and there will be no rust concerns with the Ikon as the whole thing is made from quality marine grade stainless steel.. I have about 18 DE ...

I have 16 Brushes at the moment and have sold or given away about 5. Moved onto buying razors now !! have about 15 of those so far .

The only time I would consider using Oil is on its own if I had no brush and cream available. It is better than the canned goop in drugstores. As others have said it does not seem to do anything when you use a good cream and brush, YMMV and its worth experimenting. I have been down that path and won...

Hi, I have both products and would say they are quite different, The Zirth product is quite thick in consistency in comparison to the Clinique PSH. PSH is like a milk and soothe is defianltey a balm. Both work well but and the Zirth is more moisturising for me but defiantly the heavier product. It i...

looks ok to me. 200g now that is a heavy razor. I have never seen that site before either. Anyway i have just ordered one. will report back when it arrives and i have tried it out,Thanks for the info Janus.

I have had both the green tub and the white tub. No dispute about the quality of the product and the lather it produces, but I cant get used to the menthol. Even the weaker green tea version in the white tub has too much for my liking. It’s a shame as Proraso make great products. I find the Balm and...

Hi, well I have ordered one, a Duke 2 in two band super, as soon as i have it i will post pictures.

I have got 3 vulfix made Simpsons (1 best and 2 super) and I find the super grade to be much softer while still being firm.

Sorry for the quality of the picture. but here they are,I used the chubby this morning so its bloomed.

Hi, to add my two cents worth, I am a DE user but I was given this contraption as a present http://www.razorpit.com/index.php?language=en and in the Interests of shaving science :wink: I have used it for two weeks or 13 shaves with a mach 3. I have gone back to one of my DE's as it is better for my ...

Wear and tear on the face can also depend on the type of brush. If I face lather with a pure badger brush or boar 'ouch'... I can do it for one day then my face knows about it. The softer brushes like my Rooneys and Simpson super are ok and I can do it every day if i like.
