More Creams and Soaps on the way!

Post by VinceFX »

Hey Fellas,

I just put in an order with Charles from QED for some Cyril Salter Rose Shaving Cream and some Truefitt and Hill Almond (both in jars). I also ordered 3 bars of shaving soap from Em's Place.

I will report back here with my reviews as soon as they arrive and I get a chance to use them all!

WooHoo!!!

Vince, we both have soaps to review. I am awaiting my half a dozen cakes of Joris I got on sale.

I should be set for quite some time... :)

Hi Todd,

Thanks for the tips on working with the T&H and Salters! I've heard lots of mixed reviews about Salters so I just figured what the heck, better to try it for myself. It will be interesting to see how the Salters Rose compares to my Trumpers Rose. Sometimes if I like a scent enough I'm able to tolerate other "weaknesses" such as lubrication. I'll definitley let y'all know my opinion (including Em's shaving soap).

Hey Pete,

I'm sure you'll love the Joris. Members on the MSN board seem to hold it in high regard. I also contemplated ordering a couple of bars but decided to hold off for the time being....sigh...it's so difficult to hold back though!!!

In the back of my mind I know I want to put in another order at the Gentleman's Shop soon so I figure I might pick up some hard soaps from Robert at that time.
