ItalianBarber.com April Update... Surprise Surprise!

**Artimid** · 04-30-2012, 10:03 PM

Menthol Talc... that.. could be scary depending on how effective it is. I'll add it to the list of stuff. A lot more expensive than Pinaud, but could be quite good on those summer days full of lots of walking across the campus over and over (word to the wise for new college students, pick classes that are at least NEAR each other, bleh). Also going to be a big order in May. I am hardly even browsing the forums since I don't want to be distracted and spend my money before I can try this new stuff.

+1. Multiple orders will be in my future for sure.

Yeah. It's pretty amazing. Not sure how anybody could manage to resist at least two of these soaps at this ridiculously low price.

Two or ten. Whatever one can get away with...

They're already on sale at Connaught, so it exists. Maybe Joe will get a shipment of it soon.

ETA right now is looking to be May 15th, as per shipper

The sale will start the minute they go up on the website and will last for 7 calender days, or until product goes out of stock.

Yes, we have already ordered a bunch from Proraso, as well as the new 300ml size of the pre shave and the Aloe and Vitamin E aftershave. Rest assured, if Proraso makes it, we will stock it!

Baby Blue... it's an A/S project we are working on... not yet finalized; it will NOT be a Blue Floid clone, I can tell you that much

also, we've been wanting to do a pre-shave soap in the vein of MR-GLO... mainly because I find MR-GLO to be a tad pricey for a bar of soap; I think this project just got lift off today.

I know I've preached about this in the past (just maybe not here), but, I believe, washing your face, before prepping it, with a good facial pre-shave soap, is the single easiest way to improve your shave; it also cuts down the prep time dramatically. It breaks the oils and sebum from the whiskers, allowing them to absorb more hot water faster and gets rid of the dirt and grim on your skin. Currently, I'm using the Sul Filo bar, which is fantastic... but I want a great one with the RR name on it, at a great price.

Been doing this for years. Wash face, don't rinse off the suds, then face lather.

( waiting for the new Artisan soaps.)

I can't wait! Joseph, thanks a lot for your reply.

**Crixus** · 05-03-2012, 07:08 AM

Joseph, can you verify there will be NO lanolin in this latest line of shave soaps (Don Marco, Chumbo, etc.). Thanks, I just can't find a straight answer to this question.
