The weeks fly past and it is almost the month of March. Make sure you get you orders in to stock up on green shaving kit in time for St. Patrick's Day!

Time for a bit of catching up!

i bought some essential oils from ebay, as well as a bunch of NEW and NEW STANDARD gillette razors. I'm still waiting on lots of stuff to arrive, namely a NETI Pot, atkinsons lavender, 'the third man' by caron, more as I get it.

Also, i picked up the final razor in one chapter of razor collecting.

And another to try out NEW razors.

C&E sandalwood shaving soap
C&E sandalwood ASB
C&E sandalwood EDT
C&E sweet almond oil shaving cream
C&E sweet almond oil shaving soap
L'Occitane Eau Du Badian EDT
Luxo Banho bath soap

The Luxo Banho is wonderful bath soap! It's the size of a small football but boy is it moisturizing. It originated in Europe in the 1920s and is still going today.

I wonder how the Buttercreme compares to CAR A/S Moisture Cream? what do you think of the Savory Rose scent? How does it perform? Also, How's the Baron EDT? Thanks.

I've been thinking about picking some of these items up. Looking forward to some thoughts and comments from good ol' Rik.

Greetings RR,

Once I receive my SCS shipment I'll be able to do a direct comparison since today I received:

Simpsons Persian Jar #2 Silver Tip Brush
CAR Peppermint A/S Moisture Cream

I'll give a full report on the other items. I have no doubt the soap will perform exceedingly well based on her other products.

Randy, I've tried at least 5 times to get my brother-in-law to join our group. He's too shy by nature. In person, he's a great, great guy.

I got my first order from Sue at Saint Charles Shave today. Almond shave soap, Rose shave soap, New Spice cologne, buttercream, and a couple of samples (spa butter and a new scent from Sue).

The soaps are incredibly fragrant. The almond might be the most intense almond scent out there. I can't wait to see how they shave.

Sean,
A great deal depends upon the quality of the blade.. Have you purchased any particular brand?
