This Could Be Bad...

As it turns out, I was amazed to find this out too, you can order all sorts of shaving products off the internet! :lol: Anyway, my order of the Omega Brush and Soap combo came in today. Two days after the order was shipped, it was at my front door, and it was something I would never have been able t...

Pinaud Lime Sec

I got some Pinaud Lime Sec this afternoon, and splashed a little on. It says on the bottle that it's a cologne, but felt alot like an aftershave. I figured reading the ingrediants would give a clue, while I recognized not one ingrediant, there sure was a lot of stuff, not just water and fragrance. S...

It's got a plastic handle. It's a cheap Surry brush.

My Omega is on it's way though, so I'm pretty excited.

The Best Yet

Tonight I realized just how important water is. Being new, I'm constantly trying new things to make my shaves better. Tonight before I went into the shower I decided to let my brush soak in a sink full of warm water. When I got out, I went to lather up, and I could immediatly tell the difference. Th...

Uncommon Scents

Anyone ever shopped there?

I'm asking because they have an Omega Brush/Soap combo for $17.

I'm strongly considering pulling the trigger on this.

Saint Charles Shave

So I'm planning on ordering a few soaps from Saint Charles Shave, but I can't decide on the scents I want. I'm planning on getting two. I'm getting Bay Rum for sure, but I'm not to sure about the other one. I want something that will contrast the Bay Rum, so I was thinking Savory Rose. But then I th...

Yes, that's what I've been thinking. So many choices though...so many choices.

It's a Mach 3. William's Mug Soap. Used Pinaud Clubman Aftershave with a little Nivea Sensative Skin around the breakout. This is the third shave with this blade. How many are they good for? I read they're good for about a week. It doesn't hurt too bad, just looks aweful. I guess I'll give it a litt...

Coming Back from a Beard

For about the last three years, I've had a beard. I've gone back to shaving daily and I'm not even a week in. All I've shaved for the last three years is a little bit around the neckline. I've been making three passes, one wiht the grain, one against the grain, and a third to clean up rough patches....

I am Converted

Alright, so I'm a recent convert to the wetshave, and it happened today. About a year ago, I bought some William's and a cheap brush. I got miserable results, mainly because I didn't know how to do it properly. I ditched it and grew a beard, because I hated shaving so much. I saw Mantic's videos on ...
