The Graveyard!

[SeattleSparky]

Speick is still decreasing, finished a Real Shaving Company balm, received a lifetime supply of Afta!!! (Thanks WingNut!!)

[JaDo]

A 125 gram puck of Mitchell's Wool Fat.

Such greatness...I will definitely order some more.

[rm71]

A tube of Gaia Organic Face Creme. Great stuff. I have another 3 waiting...

[beginish]

A small travel tub of Castle Forbes Lavender cream.

[jonty]

may i just say rest in peace to all who have fallen your shaves will not be forgotten:crying:.

[beginish]

RIP one small tube of Coates Rose shaving cream.

[PozzSka]

1 bottle (of the original retail run) of Captain's Choice Bay Rum...already have another on deck...

[BigRich]

I killed a tube of Veleiro shaving cream this morning.

[SmoovD]

Sad to report that a tub of TOBS Rose is now empty. Were I in acquistion mode I would most definitely purchase another tub but I really need to work down the stockpile.

[Toddy]

Bottle of the fantastic Trumper Silvester cologne - when it's gone. it's gone.

Finished off a tub of Trumper Rose this week, Scottish Fine Soaps puck about gone too.

[BrookR1]

God...I keep waiting to post on here. After 5 months, I still haven't killed anything off yet. The closest is a 1/2 bottle of TOBS pre-shave oil.

[Hesster]

I finally polished off a puck of Colonel Conk Bay Rum. It was one of my very first shaving purchases, and my first completion of a product that wasn't "travel-sized."

For the price, it was an unbeatable soap.

[Jim]

Bottle of Creed Green Irish Tweed. Nice, but not one to replace.

[PugslyCat]

I just finished a puck of VDH Select soap. I know that isn't one that anybody is going to be envious of, but I consider it to be a good soap for the price. Sometimes the cheapest products aren't usable at all, but that doesn't seem to be the case here. I'm in the 2012 sabbatical for now, but would certainly considering buying this product in the future.

Next up:
The end of a puck of Williams
Colonel Conk Lime
Mama Bear Aged Spice

[GardenWeasel]

Gone...250 ml of Santa Maria Novella shave cream & 2oz/57g container of Nancy Boy replenishing shave cream. Both were great!

how long did it take you get through the SMN?

[GardenWeasel]

The SMN was in rotation...and I shave daily. It took about 1 1/2 years.

[OkieStubble]

because of variety, amounts and AD's, In two years of traditional wetshaving, I have only finished

1 VDH Deluxe soap
1 Small bottle of Aqua Velva
1 small tube of C.O. Bigelow cream

[biomesh]

A puck of Mama Bear's Lilac and Lavender shaving soap.

[Foyle]

One tub of Trumper's Coconut shaving cream. It's good stuff but I doubt I'll replace it. The scent was nice but for most shaves I couldn't even smell it. For the money it's not better than anything costing a fraction of the price. For my money, Speick and Proraso out-perform it. I did, however, find it vastly out-performed AOS Lavender, with which I was very disappointed.

[BrookR1]

I hunkered down and made my first (non sampler) kill...a tube of EJ Sea Buckthorn. I like it, but found it was too moisturizing for me. It almost made my face sweat. The scent really started to grow on me, but there are better out there. This cream smells like a summer cream, but I think would make a better winter cream because of its moisturizing properties.

[BeeSeeDub]

QCS Basilica Cream-soap - I have a tub of Lavender that I'll be moving on to for the spring and summer. The basilica was fantastic and I have the same high expectations of the lavender.

[Fairchild86]

Just finished off a tub of TOBS rose and and tube of Speick. Both great creams!

[Bobtrumpet]

Wow, it's been a while since I posted here.

Items finished:

1 tub of Nancy Boy signature scent SC (not yet replaced)
1 tube of C. O. Bigelow SC (will not be replaced; sticking with new formula Proraso)
1 bottle of Aqua Velva Musk AS/Cologne (not yet replaced)
2 jars of Proraso pre-shave cream (replaced)
1 tub of Coates' Tee Tree SC (current formula) (will not be replaced)
1 tub of Salter's Sandalwood SC (will not be replaced)
1 puck of VDH Luxury SS (will not be replaced)

I've also had the knots come out of two brushes: my C&E BBB that I bought 4 years ago, and my B&B Essential (first batch). Both can be repaired, but the BaBE will be more difficult considering its construction.

[Vlad]

Well done!

[PugslyCat]

Killed VDH Select 4-20-2012 Good soap for a very low cost. Would buy again.
Killed the end of a puck of Williams 5-11-2012 What hasn't been written about Williams. It's only an OK soap, but is the cheapest thing around. Can be troublesome to lather, especially in hard water.

Next up:
Mama Bear Aged Spice

[Hesster]

Just finished off my first bottle of Thayer's Original Witch Hazel, and I made sure to grab another. I found it to be the "secret weapon" of my wet-shaving arsenal. Great stuff.

[GardenWeasel]

It is indeed great stuff! Couldn't survive without it!

[Alphonse]

Finished off Proraso tube.. i have 2 others left. It's awesome of course.
Finished off Proraso Balm. I have to replace it soon with more of the same.
Finished off TOBS Almond. I have to replace this as well since I love it, but my vendor is out so I'm going to try Rose.
Finished off Pinaud VI BayRum.. I have 3 more large bottles so you know it's getting replaced.
Finished off Nivea Sensitive Balm.. smells awesome, but the new bottles don't smell the same to me. Not sure if they changed it up for the worse.

[Spivey]

I finally finished my Ogallala Bay Rum Limes & Peppercorns stick. I enjoy the soap, but I'll not replace it as I am consolidating. It's been a process; all that remains now is MWF, Palmolive stick and the Body Shop Maca Root SC. MWF is a keeper (unless the nature of our water changes drastically). The Maca Root is also a keeper. I'm on the fence with Palmolive, but I'm about to spend a lot of time getting to know it.

[johnniegold]

I haven't finished a product since the end of March until now. Man, this shaving stuff lasts a long time. :rolleyes:

Just finished a bottle of Speick edt. It will definitely be replaced. The aftershave will probably be done in another week or so.

Now, do they get replaced immediately or do I ride out the Sabbatical? Decisions, decisions. :biggrin:

[beginish]

RIP my one and only pack of Super Iridiums.

[Mike Schutz]

Mem English Leather AS. I found this bottle on eBay a year ago and have been enjoying all the old memories it brought back. At the prices it is going for now on the Bay, it will not be replaced. It was an enjoyable blast from the past while it lasted.

[Foyle]

One tube of Proraso Green

245765

[JeffJ]

Puck of Gold Dachs. Great soap. Will replace.

[biomesh]

Finished a sampler pack of Ogallala Bay Rum Shaving Soaps.

[banditman]

Finished a tub of Cella soap. A replacement has already been ordered.:biggrin:

[alfbacca]

Just finished up a bottle of Aqua Velva. It'll be replaced at some point, but I'm keeping the glass bottle to decant into later.

[GardenWeasel]

I will miss my Cella! And my Nancy Boy Skin Replenisher. I already have another bottle of Nancy Boy. Cella was good, but MWF is better.
http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i82/nukemkb/294af300.jpg

[johnniegold]

One tube of Proraso Green

245765

I see at least two more shaves in that tube. :wink:

A puck of La Toja Manantiales bit the dust yesterday. Even though this soap is no longer produced, I did not experience any melancholia. I started a bowl of DR Harris Lavender soap to help me get over it. :biggrin:

[beginish]

RIP one bottle of Caldey Island Lavender ASL

[Sullybob]

RIP one bottle of Caldey Island Lavender ASL

Will you replace it Bob?

[beginish]

Will you replace it Bob?

It's really good stuff, but I have a backlog of AS and won't replace it immediately. Probably at some point in the future.

[johnniegold]

A bottle of Speick aftershave. I hate it when that happens. It will be replaced after the Sabbatical. You can bank on that. :yesnod:

[Hesster]

Finished off one tube of Trumper's Violet. It was my very first wetshaving cream, and in my rotation it last well over a year. I find that a lot of people likely picked up Violet after reading this article - http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/6886845/ns/today-today_weekend_edition/t/how-get-perfect-shave/#.T8uLWY59TN4. It was kind've like the gateway drug to this community for me.

I've already gone ahead and replaced it with a tube of GFT.

Gft smells sooooooooo good.

[FL shaver]

Gonna claim my second puck of GFT Coconut Oil Soap. Yeah, there are some teeny remnants still stuck to the top of my Cade puck, but a sane person would have tossed them!

I love this soap. I still have the third puck from a gift about 5 or 6 years ago!

[alfbacca]

Finished a bottle of DR Harris Marlborough aftershave this morning. It'll get replaced along the way as I love the scent, but I've been on a Proraso kick lately.

[Uncle Jackie]

Finished two things this morning.

A tub of Wilkinson Sword Blue soap (thank god that part of my life is over)
A bottle of Kenneth Cole Black cologne, (this I will be replacing).

[chris.hale]

I've finished the tub of TOBS sandalwood that started my DE shaving journey in November, it's done me proud and I was quite sad to see the bottom of the tub. I've already replaced it, it's too good not to have some. :001_smile

[bbarton713]

Just finished a bottle of Speick ASL and I'm very close to finishing a couple of other products. I've been at this for nearly 2 years and this is how long it has taken to get through some of my initial purchases.

I will be buying another bottle in the future once I clear out some more stuff.

[PozzSka]

Just finished off a puck of TOBS Lavender...I have used only this soap since December sometime...lasts a long time...

[InsecureSpike]

just used the last of my Issey Miyake L'eau D'issey Pour Homme
boy i love this! and i get so many compliments too, i like to spray quite a lot of this on, perfect for a summer or warm spring day,
it has a citrus smell not too sweet either,
tomorrow i'll buy a new bottle,

[TLetums]

A tub (old batch) of Pacific Shaving Co. Cream.

[OhMeWhiskers]

Cool and interesting thread! (Though most members seem to forget to state if they will replenish an item.)

Creams/Soft Soaps:
1 Proraso Green tube (replenished with tub)
1 Cella tub (replenished with brick)
1 TOBS Almond tub (replenished)
1 Erasmic tube (replenished, plus purchased soap)

Soaps:
1 MWF (replenished with container)
1 L'Occitane Cade (replenished)

Afters:
1 Proraso White ASB (replenished)
1 L'Occitane Cade ASB (replenished)
1 The Shave Den Iced SubZero ASM (replenished)

Pres & Post:
2 Proraso Pre Post (replenished) (also used for non-shaving)
1 Osma Alum Block (replenished)
2 Thayers WH Astrigent (replenished) (also used for non-shaving)

Fiscal:
1 bank account (working on replenishing)

All of the above were items I started with over 2 years ago - back in my one razor and one brush days. They were chosen after doing more than a little research on this magnificent site. The research seems to have paid off because those first thoroughly thought out purchases almost always led to additional purchases.

Now that I have actually joined this site and have more time to participate (in both the site and the world of traditional shaving) I have very recently acquired a ton (almost literally) of stuff - both software and hardware.

As a result of these new explorations and trigger-pulls, I seem to have now found that I am more of a (hard) soap and ASS man (actually I have been the latter since about 11 or 12 years of age, but I digress...). With that shift said, I still cherish my first-love soft soaps, creams, and balms in my rotation. Part of the delight, I have definitely found out, of my more advanced state of traditional shaving is having a vast and varied rotation of software and hardware.

[Mike Schutz]

Finished a tube of L'Occitane Cade ASB. It's already been replaced. My Sunday favorite.

[noahpictures]

First tube of Proraso since joining B&B!

[beginish]

Goodbye one bowl of La Toja Manantiales soap

[johnniegold]

A bottle of German Pitralon Classic aftershave. It will not be replaced.

[packersfan117]

I've killed a puck of VDH deluxe and a puck of Williams. I like the VDH well enough, and will probably have some room for it in my rotation (haven't bought it yet though), but the Williams was not replaced and shall not be. It was better than canned goo, but nowhere near MWF or even VDH.

[TLetums]

A tube of Kiss My Face - Green Tea & Bamboo. Will consider buying it again in the future but not right now (way to many creams and soaps).

[Bobtrumpet]

Forgot to post a depleted jar of Proraso (old formulation) pre-shave cream.

[Mike Schutz]

Killed a tube of Proraso. It took me two years. Menthol/eucalyptus is far from a favorite of mine. I may replace this one with a tube of the new Proraso Sandlewood.

[CapnPanther]

Tub of TOBS Mr. Taylor's passed away this morning.

[elsmooth]

Proraso aftershave balm gave up the ghost this morning. It won't be replaced.

[arghblech]

The last of my Swedes went in the blade bank yesterday. They weren't ever my favorite but they were pretty darn good blades.

[Spivey]

Ogallala Bay Rum.

[nrv216]

First post in this thread and I have been using a straight for 3 months! I killed a puck of vdh deluxe this morning. I already had another on deck! I like using it for super lathers.

nrv216

[bbarton713]

Speick After Shave Balm. I will get another.

[Domminigan]

Tube of C.O. Bigelow shave cream. I've got backups.

[Evbo]

Just finished my 2nd bottle of Emerald Water splash. It's already been replaced!

[johnniegold]

A bottle of Thayer's Lavender witch hazel. Another one is at the ready.

[biomesh]

A tub of T&H Lavender shaving cream.

[rockviper]

One puck of VDH deluxe bit the bullet yesterday. There's another stashed away someone in my box'o'stuff

[texaninkc]

Finished a bottle of thayers witch hazel. I probably won't pick up another until I finish my experiment with Twinluxe's booster serum.

[Sullybob]

I finished a puck of Goldachs.

[Lucidor]

Threw out a tub of The Body Shop Maca Root shaving cream. It only had some dried up leftovers along the edges, so it qualifies as empty. I think it was harder to get a good lather from it than TOBS, so I won't be getting it again. Scent was also a bit meh

Also out of old formula After Shave balm from Proraso. I love it, and I'll look for it's replacement. Have an order for Sulfio el Raso or whatever their modern series is called.

Also finished a can of Pre/Post from Proraso earlier this year, but I had another one waiting.

[rm71]

A bottle of 4711 EDC.

[banditman]

Finished: First puck of Tabac soap. A most excellent product that will be replaced.

[andyr]

A tube of C.O. Bigelow cream. May not buy it again; I like HeadSlick better.

[strop]

Have finished several things in the last few months.

Spieck ASL-already replaced.
Floid Suave-replaced with a 400ml bottle of Vigoroso, but can't decide which I like better
Salter Lime cream-this took forever since I now use mostly soaps. Scent and performance were nice, but I like soaps better with straights.
Salter Mint-PIF'd. Scent is like Mint Chocolate Chip ice cream. Was OK, but I knew I'd never use it.
RazoRock XXX- This will eventually get replaced when I finish some other Razorock soap.
Proraso preshave-already replaced. Don't use it every day, though. Mostly summer when I want some cooling sensation.
Razorock alum-replac3ed because I like the holder with the plastic top.

[insomniac]

One tub of RazoRock XXX.

[rockviper]

Travel sized Castle Forbes Lime.
Nice enough, but will not be replaced.

[maxman]

Knocked off a tub of AOS Lemon cream the other day.
Good stuff.

[Bobtrumpet]

Finished a 100ml jar of Proraso pre-shave, new formula.

I made up for it by ordering Lee's last two 500 ml jars of the old formula. :w00t:

[BeeSeeDub]

Another tube of C. O. Bigelow finished today - another already wating in the closet.

[Evbo]

Just killed my first package of Feather Pro blades. Never thought it would happen. :thumbup1:

[Mike Schutz]

Just killed my first package of Feather Pro blades. Never thought it would happen. :thumbup1:

[Mike Schutz]

Royall Lyme. It's not being replaced. There are better lime AS's out there.

[johnniegold]

A bottle of Bvlgari Pour Homme edt. Another one at the ready.

[Fileroman]

444 balm. Mixed with a little Alcolado Glacial it's a face freezer. Great moisturizing properties also. Suckers are so small I've already ordered four more.

Ron

[ironfisted]

Florena shave cream. Used to be my daily driver. When it ran out I was disheartened to find out that the manufacturer had pulled a bait and switch and replaced Florena with Nivea in Canada (and I believe globally). I also finished the Nivea and went back for more. Then I discovered Badger and Blade. It turns out that I don't have to use the same product day in an day out.

[rtb178]

Small block of Valobra Menthol soft soap. A great soap, with no real smell other than a light menthol. Honestly, however, I doubt I'll replace, at least for awhile.

[hdhaskell]

150 g tub of TOBS avocado cream

[Jim]

http://badgerandblade.com/gallery/displayimage.php?imageid=36906 (http://badgerandblade.com/gallery/showimage.php?i=36906)

This bottle of Harris' Bay Rum passed on yesterday morning.....



http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i236/beachballhead/Shave%20Stuff/_DSC4158_01.jpg



It wasn't a bad after shave, but there are quite a few which I would rather use so it will not immediately be replaced.

[alfbacca]

Just finished a bottle of Proraso splash old formula, but I have another backed up all ready to go for tomorrow.

[htownmmm]

Thayer's Lemon W/H w Aloe Vera

[soda]

Just finished a tub of RazoRock Aftershave Wax.

Will I buy it again? I already have.

If you haven't tried it, I recommend it.

[rm71]

100ml bottle of Black Musk edt

[Merkur25]

After nearly 3 years of wet shaving, I have yet to use up one of anything. Maybe one day......

[rockviper]

Finished of my Saint Charles Orange Sorbet Shave Stick.
Very nice indeed.

[mblakele]

4711 aftershave - already replaced by its understudy. The empty 4711 bottle makes a fine glass container for Aqua Velva, too.

[JeffJ]

Finished half a stick of Provence Sante Green Tea soap.

[CapnPanther]

Finished a bottle of La Toja Aftershave splash.

[Vlad]

DR Harris hair tonic with oil: loved it, perfect product for me, smells divine. But it's expensive and I'm afraid will not be replaced.

La Toja stick: it was great really gettinhttp://www.imgur.com/Vh3eE.jpegg to know this wonderful soap, and I would love another if I didn't already have 50 soaps to use up.

[texaninkc]

I'm one shave from posting in this thread. :-) see you Wednesday.

[texaninkc]

it's FINISHED! i had help from the Mrs as this was her favorite cream, but I (we) finally finished a product! one of my favorite creams. wont be replaced however, as i'm primarily a soap guy and i'm trying to kill off my creams. next up is an AOS lemon cream that's got about another 20-30 uses.

265495

[mblakele]

325-mL pump bottle of mint KMF, old formulation. Most of this went for test lathers and face washes, rather than actual shaves. Good lather but the scent reminded me too much of mint chip ice cream. It will not be replaced.

[Sullybob]

I finished a bottle of Aqua Lavanda Puig, the big 6.75 oz bottle along with a jar of TFS Bergamotto Neroli.

[beginish]

RIP one DR Harris Arlington Shave Stick. It will be replaced with a full puck.

[biomesh]

A puck of Mama Bears Rosemary Mint shaving soap.

[alfbacca]

Just finished off 2 samples of Mike's Natural Shave soaps: Lime and Orange/Cedar/Pepper. It's already been replaced with a full bar of Mike's Unscented and samples of Pepermint/Rosemary and Lily of the Valley. I'm getting outstanding shaves out of this soap!

[alfbacca]

Just finished off a tub of Razorock Don Marco. I love the scent and will be restocking as soon as I finish off some more soaps.

[Uncle Brian]

My Australian made Palmolive Cream has given its all. This was the first shave cream I ever tried and I can give it the big thumbs up mate!
It's $3.99 in the local supermarket which makes it cheaper than buying Arko online or anything else really.
Would I buy it again ... YES Do I think you should try it ...YES Would I give a tube to my best mate ... YES Did I buy another tube when I went to the supermarket yeterday ... YES

[GladiusGSF]

Didn't exactly finish it in the sense of using it all...but finished it in the Mortal Kombat sense....Erasmic Stick....horrible, horrible, horrible. I wouldn't GIVE it away it was so bad! Buyer beware....

[demaro]

I just finished a tub of green Proraso. I have another that I will start in the spring.

[johnniegold]

No one has finished anything in the last week? :biggrin:

A 3.4 oz bottle of Bvlgari Aqva. It will not be replaced.

[biomesh]

HBS Victorian Rose shave stick.

[djh]

This one bit the dust this morning. It is a very good after shave and I have been using it almost daily for a little while in order to finish the bottle whilst our weather was still reasonably warm. Next time I see it in a store, I will probably grab a bottle but I have plenty of AS on hand these days.




http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i236/beachballhead/Shave%20Stuff/_DSC4235_01.jpg

[Fairchild86]

Just finished up a Palmolive stick. I have one more already and will buy again after I go through some other things first. I don't see why I wouldn't buy again, its an exellent soap and cheap.

[akokandy]

Finally finished a puck of Charismata Cherry Pipe Tobacco that I got in their grand opening sale for the princely sum of $5. It was definitely a tremendous value, considering that over the last couple of years I've gotten at least 85 shaves out of it. It will not be replaced.

[Barbash]

Finally finished a puck of Charismata Cherry Pipe Tobacco that I got in their grand opening sale for the princely sum of $5. It was definitely a tremendous value, considering that over the last couple of years I've gotten at least 85 shaves out of it. It will not be replaced.

I remember when they had their grand opening like two years ago. I bought a few and remember they had a number of good scents. Are they still around?

[Rivguy]

I drained the last few drops from a bottle of GFT Coral Skin Food. It is a great product and I have a new bottle on hand.

I believe so, but I couldn't tell you for sure. Their grand opening was the only time I've ever bought from them, and I did see them mentioned around the forum for awhile after that, but they seem to have dropped off the radar; I haven't heard anything about them in quite a while.

R.I.P. one bottle of Acca Kappa White Moss ASL. It will not be replaced.

Two bottles of Harris Marlborough and Speick aftershaves. Both have been replaced.

[Vlad]

Small jar of MdC finished today. What a great soap. Will not be replaced, though. I went through this fast, and there are other cheaper great soaps. I also have too many in the den waiting for me to replace anything.

[johnniegold]

A bottle of Woods of Windsor aftershave splash. Although I do enjoy its scent, I don't think this one is in production anymore and therefore will not be replaced.

I finished off a small bottle of Floid this morning. I have a big bottle to replace it.

[craig94yj]

One Tube Proraso Red ( sandalwood) - Immediately replenished. My favorite!
One Tube Proraso Green (C.O.Bigelow) - I wish it had more menthol, but will buy more.
C&E Sandalwood soap. - It smells wonderful, but I like the creams better. I have Sienna and Nomad tubes on the way to try.
Polmolive soap sample - I would buy this product if there weren't so many other options.
Mike's Natural Soap Lime - I was a noob and didn't have good results with the lather. Maybe I'll try again. Maybe not.
Mystic Waters - Take it or leave it. I'll leave it. My wife is temperamental enough, I don't need my soap to be too.
CVS after shave balm. - This is a Nivea knock off and it has a nice smell and works great on sensitive skin. I want to try Nivea to compare, but a worthy purchase for $3 cheaper.
Clubman Aftershave - The nostalgia brought on by the smell is wonderful, but it makes me break out. My brother in-law is enjoying it.
Taconic Bay Rum Cream - Nice product. I wish the scent was a little more intense.
That's it so far.

[Jayk]

Finished my 125gr P-160, loved it. Now comes the remorse for not picking up a kg when I had the chance. :a52:

[biomesh]

A puck of HBS Coffee Mocha shaving soap.

[Doc4]

RIP one bottle of Pashana Eau de Quinine hair tonic, with oil.

Not to be replaced as SWMBO finds the scent repulsive and migraine-inducing. If mama ain't happy ain't nobody happy ...

[Dennard]

A bottle of P&G Old Spice aftershave. I'll probably use the Ivy Club Spice aftershave from now on.

[Toothpick]

2 tubes of Bigelow cream. In a little over a year since I first started with the DE. Perhaps I'm using to much?

[catherix]

So far I'be finished a tin of Mike's O/C/BP and a bottle of Thayer's Rose. The tin of Mike's will definitely be replaced, its one of my favorite performers. The Thayer's Rose will likely not be replaced. Smelled like baby powder to me and I like their Super Hazel and Lavender much much better!

[bjh618]

After two years of intermittent use - 1 tub of Figaro shave soap. Won't be replaced as I'm very much over italian soaps right now.

[mol81]

My 60's gillette travel razor. The screw thread on the head is completely gone and it will not close anymore :(

2 tubes of Bigelow cream. In a little over a year since I first started with the DE. Perhaps I'm using to much?

Easy solution ... use more product.

[hitemfrank]

A bottle of TOBS Victorian Lime was finished off on Thursday. A bottle of Alt Innsbruck will be finished today or tomorrow.

I have a replacement bottle for both.

[Giant Kiwi]

Since I started:
One bottle Proraso ASB replaced
one bottle of GFT Limes skin food not likely to be replaced

[mblakele]

Today I had exactly enough of the Nancy Boy Signature Scent shaving cream for one last shave. Good performer, but I mostly use soaps these days. If I ever replace it I will probably choose a different scent.

[bennyJ82]

Just finished some Provence Sante Verlaine aftershave

[SeattleSparky]

Just finished a tub of soap that a friend of the family produces (http://www.blackettbodybasics.com/), good stuff, another is in reserve, next up is a llittle red tub of Cella!!!

[alfbacca]

Finished off a bar of Mike's unscented soap. I liked it a lot, but I'm now moving on to a bar of Mike's lime.

[FL shaver]

5 pack of Astra SP blades!



I know....ridiculous.

:biggrin1:

[rockviper]

One puck of Col.Conk Amber
Will it be replaced? Nope. Nothing against Conk soaps, but I've just got too many other things that I like more.

[greensgalaxy]

TOB Sandalwood cream (tube)... it was good, and I have another :)

[hitemfrank]

A puck of Muhle Sea Buckthorn shave soap was finished this morning. Pretty good stuff that I'll probably buy again.

[brucered]

finished a travel sized tub of M&F Unscented today.

it will not be replaced, as i have a couple tubs of Scented and enjoy it much more.

i don't know that i have ever posted in here, but I have finished off a few products in my 2 years here.

I am planning and getting ready for the 2013 Sabbatical, so am using up a few products now (a couple more products will be finished off this week or next).

going to stock up a few things before the years over, then it's no more purchases for me (we'll see if i can make it out of January) and I'll be posting like crazy in here (sure :sleep:)

[bennyJ82]

I finished off samples of TBS maca root cream (will not buy because of the scent), Taylor's sandalwood cream (might buy in the future, but right now I am set with my C&E sandalwood soap), and Mike's Natural pine & cedarwood (will buy once I find a suitable matching aftershave) and bay rum (already bought a bar).

[brucered]

[texaninkc]

Finished off a bowl of Yardley. I bought it with less than 20% remaining and used it 26 times myself. A full puck would have given me 130 shaves. Thankfully, I have 6 more bowls left.

[SmoovD]

This past weekend was a gathering of B&Bers so I was able to tidy up the den a bit by sampling out a few products. Tubes of Arko Commando and Nuka shave creams were finished as well as a puck of Pecksniff's Fougere. PIF is one sweet way to add to the Graveyard.

[rockviper]

A bottle of Vito's Colonia Lavanda AS is now finished. That would be the 120ml version, not the full litre.
This will not be replaced as, while we like it, SWMBO and I prefer Clubman.

[brucered]

Proraso AS Balm (the alcohol free one) and a jar of RR KL Wax....(and a tube of toothpaste all in the same day :biggrin1:)

the proraso will not be replaced and the RR may be, but not for a while as i'm working my way thru a few items right now.

[superkreep]

Just finished a jar of Proraso in ~1 year.

[djh]

Just finished a tub of Santa Maria Novella shave soap. Great quality product, loads well, good lather and provides wonderful shaving but the menthol/eucalyptus thing is not really for me. If I lived somewhere with much warmer weather I might consider replacing this one, but at the moment I am moving on to a puck of Knize soap.

[biomesh]

TGQ Gentlemen's Oak and Moss

[infotech]

One tube of Trumpers Lime shave cream

[cnnc97]

Just finished a tub of TOBS Jermyn St SC, only took me a year and a half. I think I bought too much stuff.

[texaninkc]

Just finished a bottle of Origins Fire Burner aftershave. a 50ml bottle lasted 78 shaves. At 18 dollars a bottle, this thing was about 23 cents a shave. Not terrible. Will not be replaced as I have about 30 other aftershaves waiting in line.

[djh]

This bottle came to grief last night......




http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i236/beachballhead/_DSC4563_01.jpg




It is good juice and I do enjoy lavender, but I believe that there are better solutions out there....

[alfbacca]

Just finished a bottle of Proraso splash, and opened up a new bottle.

[johnniegold]

A bottle of Irisch Moos a/s. Although it was enjoyable, it will not be replaced.

[JaDo]

Finished a tin of Jabonman - Brisa de Oriente. Excellent soap with wonderful ingredients.

I may order more Jabonman soaps in the future, but probably not this same one.

[bennyJ82]

Finished off a bottle of AOS Lavender AS Gel

[thekinge]

Today, I finally managed to finish the Godrej menthol mist shaving cream (blue tube) that I bought in the last week of July 2012. This was my first ever shaving cream that I purchased while getting into DE / wet shaving and it has taken over 2 months of regular and 2 months of intermittent usage to finish the tube.

Very easy to build good creamy lather with the Godrej menthol mist, fabulous menthol feeling on the face and a value for money shaving cream. However I won't be buying it again in the near future since I have quite a few other shaving creams / soaps to go through - Proraso, Nivea & Biotique shaving creams, Godrej shaving soaps and lot of sample creams / soaps that I received with my purchases. And they will last me a good couple of years!

[PugslyCat]

Killed VDH Select 4-20-2012 Good soap for a very low cost. Would buy again.
Killed the end of a puck of Williams 5-11-2012 What hasn't been written about Williams? It's only an OK soap, but is the cheapest thing around. Can be troublesome to lather, especially in hard water.
Mama Bear Aged Spice finished on 11/11/12. This has been a great lathering soap that will be replaced. It's a great lathering soap and excellent bang for the buck. If I had been exclusive to this soap it still would have lasted 5 months. Excellent fragrance as well. The melt and pour soaps seem to get dissed around here, but I like the ease of which I can refit it to different containers.
Old Spice Mug - It slipped from the counter into the sink on 11/11/12. I was amazed this broke it, but it did. I'm down to half a dozen of these, so it will have to be replaced. I may superglue this one back together, but it will still get replaced.


Next up:
Parker Sandalwood & Colonel Conk bay rum I'm not going to be soap monogamous anymore now that I have paid attention and know how long a soap lasts, but I am going to limit my rotation to a two or three seasonal soaps. I expect these two soaps to last me until March or April of 2013.

Weekends at the house in the country I had been using some VDH Deluxe since 5/11, but added Arko to that rotation on 11/1. Together I expect them to last a couple of years with such infrequent use.

On the shelf:
Mama Bear Brut - I'm going to wait until spring 2013 for this one.
Omega - This is another one to wait until warmer weather
Colonel Conk Lime - Sorry, but I PIF'd this one. I'll get some more eventually.

[ShaveThis]

Well, there goes a tub of Grafton cream. I'll be replacing this one.

All that's left of a bar of Mike's Natural unscented I started using in early August. Replaced by a bar of Mike's Orange, Cedarwood and Black Pepper.

[texaninkc]

Finished a tub of 15% remaining AOS lemon cream. 16 uses would have given me about 110 shaves if I had a full tub. That's about 20cents per shave. Not bad.

will not be replaced since I'm working on getting rid of my creams.

[johnniegold]

A bottle of Bvlgari Pour Homme. Plenty more in the den.

[texaninkc]

AOS lavender pre-shave oil. 113 uses on this bottle which was purchased at about 90% so about 125 for a full bottle. A new bottle goes for 22 bucks so about 18cents a shave. Will not be replaced. Going to try the pre-shave gel from AOS.

[johsa]

A puck of AOS sandalwood. This was my forth puck of AOS that I have finished and I already got a replacement puck.

[johnniegold]

A bowl of Trumper Rose s/s. This was finished on the 17th. It was the old tallow formulation and it will not be replaced.

[Kooze]

Jar of Proraso Pre/post finished last week. 1st full-sized product I finished-feels good!

[biomesh]

Tub of TOBS St James Shaving Cream

[mblakele]

D.R. Harris Arlington stick. The eventual, inevitable replacement will probably be a puck that I remill as a stick myself. The Harris stick holder will go into immediate service holding some other 28-mm stick.

[AjaxLepinski]

Trumper's Coconut, Captain's Choice, TOBS Avocado...

[johnniegold]

A tube of La Toja shaving cream. It will not be replaced.

[akokandy]

Finally finished a tub of TOBS Sandalwood SC with a shave today. This was actually the first wet shaving product I purchased when I switched in March 2010. Excellent product, especially for beginners IMHO, as it lathers well and easily. A very good product, but I probably won't replace it.

[mdevine]

I finished my second bottle of Speick ASL this morning. Since finding it a couple years ago, thanks to numerous recommendations of members here, it has become my favorite aftershave. While my favorite razor, soap, brush, blade and fragrance seems to vary from day to day, Speick stands head and shoulders above everything else I've tried. I have more than twenty other aftershave splashes and balms in my rotation, but Speick gets reached for more than any other. I already had another bottle of Speick in the cupboard, so I opened it today. In the time that brought me to bottle three of Speick, I doubt I've finished half a bottle of any of the others.

[gmgaj]

I've finished a 2 oz. bottle of Ogallala bay rum AS and an entire puck of VDH soap. Both were replaced.

[CapnPanther]

Tub of J.M. Fraser's Mosswood shave cream.

[catherix]

A Spieck Stick that I milled in my VDH bowl was killed off this morning. There was about 35 shaves in there. I will be replacing it, likely with a couple sticks as they're super cheap(and well worth it).

[beginish]

A puck of Trumper's Rose. One back up is already in the den.

[JeffJ]

A puck of Muhle Sea Buckthorn. Good soap, I will not go out of my way to replace.

[djh]

If there is a better After Shave, I am yet to try it. There was already a back-up in the cabinet (although it may not be opened immediately in the spirit of "let's get rid of some of these open bottles first")

A tube of 444 and a puck of Arlington. The 444 has a backup, but I have too many lather products to replace the Arlington.

[Omp]

A 2oz bottle of eShave Unscented pre-shave oil.
Lasted me about 120 shaves. I have another bottle in reserve so no need to rebuy.
I'm keen to try some other pre-shaves so I may introduce some competition after xmas

[SmoovD]

One empty tube of Kyna shave cream hit the bin this morning. The cream is decent but will not be replaced.

Gonna be a big week for the finishing product- this tube, a carton of BIC blades is down to one blade and a vintage puck of Williams should give me shaves for the rest of the week before giving up the ghost.

[mhdena]

Creed Original Vetiver, replaced.

One puck of Glastonbury-era Williams has passed on to the great shaving mug in the sky.

Ha ha! Just saw what was added under my screen name! Just to be accurate, that is a shot of a nearly empty tube of 444 ASB.

I have a tube key on my Musgo cream. Don't want to waste any!

[akokandy]

Finished a bottle of Diesel Only the Brave AS splash today.

This AS features average skincare, along with a modern/aquatic/ozonic synthetic scent, which although pleasant sometimes, can be downright nauseating if overapplied.

Not one I'll replace, as I have much better aftershaves which cost far less.

[rockviper]

One VDH finished. Thought I might have been able to scrape through this morning's shave from it, but alas no.

[brucered]

finished a tub of MW Rosalimone. It was a very nice tub, but i have 2 more MW in reserve and facing the 2013 Sabbatical, so won't be repurchasing it any time soon

next one up will be my AOS Lemon Cream.

My puck of Knize soap has been finished. I was unsure about replacing this one, but a couple of shaves with a Valobra stick have convinced me that the Knize was not as good as my top-shelf soaps and will, therefore, not be replaced.

[hitemfrank]

Finished off my QCS Key Lime cream/soft soap today. I'm unusre if I'll be buying it again as the performance wasn't outstanding but it smelled fantastic. I'm not saying the performance was bad but it wasn't as good as others I've used.

I also decided to bin what was left of my Nivea Cool Kick. Not sure why it's taken me so long to do it as it was never something that agreed with my face for some reason.

This represents the last few months. The only thing not pictures is Razorock 888 aftershave. The bottle has already been repurposed for witch hazel.

888 aftershave
King Louis aftershave It took me a bit to get used to the spray application of these, but they are top notch performers. The
888 will definitely be replace, eventually, after I clean out another half dozen AS bottles.

Arlington -What can I say. Replaced.
4711- Will be replaced
TOBS Luxury- I only started with a partial bottle. Nice but not better than several others, so not likely replaced.

TOBS Mr. Taylor cream- Nice performer if you like cream. Nice "barbershop" scent, but I prefer soap, so not likely to be
replaced.

Floid Sandolor preshave gel- I have one more bottle remaining. Since they brought back Floid Blue, maybe there is hope for
this as well.

[Galengwath]

After a couple months regular use I finished off a tub of Shave Library soap. It had a nice cedarwood scent, if a bit overwhelming, but it's all gone now. This is the first time I've finished a genuine puck of soap, and it feels pretty good.

[rockviper]

Last shave from Penhalingon's Blenheim Bouquet.
As nice as it is, it will not be replaced. (Just think how much Arko you could buy instead!!)

You can put your Arko in that fancy jar and class it up a bit.

[global_dev]

I finally tossed a bottle of MyChelle splash. I thought i was gonna finish it a week or so ago, but it kept going, i tired to use it up more quickly, but it always had what seemed like one more use. even when i tossed it, there was still one more use... it will not be replaced. it was nice, but the scent was a bit to clove-ish for me. I need a break from it.
