ARKO | SEMOGUE | GILLETTE | POLSILVER

Click here to view quoted image.

Wow, Arko sure is something. It exploded with decent lather. It was my first time using it so I didnt really know what to expect, but had heard it lathers well. It does lather well but it smell horrific. I got a great shave but the smell is not for me. Even my wife commented on how awful it smelled. It is now sitting in my garbage can outside. i hope the garbage man doesn't get mad at me when he smells it. This is the first product I have ever binned. I guess I have been lucky​

Couple of shaves and the smell dies plenty, but I do enjoy it!

Holy Black | MILORD | MITA | POLSILVER

Tried to get super creative with todays SOTD pic. It was a balancing act to say the least. The shave itself was far less taxing and much more enjoyable. Stirling MITA is amazing in the summer....scent, performance, MENTHOL...it all works so well together. Finished it all off with some Thayers Lemon witch hazel and QCS Iced Key Lime Balm.
