For your shaving pleasure and kind consideration, may I present: Arko August 2024!

Arko August 2024

Holy FSM, how has the time flown so fast? Anyway, another year, another Arko August! I don't have the discipline to 3017 a soap, but I can use one for a month. I generally do the SOTMC thing - one month, one soap - and August is for Arko. If you don't have a stick of Arko, now is the time to...

Success in July. While I will miss the B&M Seville - and I nearly got through it, meaning it's a 2.5-month soap for me - August is for ARKO!:

I feel the same way with GD's Edel.
I finished off Agrumes and moved onto what I felt was a locked in 3017, only to be teased by the ring...

Please accept my late entry for August and application for September. This will be my third attempt of the year.
Attempts:3
Completions: 2
Soap: Tabac

 

[awk_m4]

Success for August! All three attempts have been with Tabac. For me, Tabac is too easy. I could shave with it everyday. I do have some other soaps that I ought to use so my next monthly 3017 will be with a different soap.

Attempts:3
Completions: 3
Soap: Tabac

 

[Guido75]

Success in August. Mike's actually survived August as well.

I want to rotate a couple of soaps for September, which I believe is against SOTMC criteria so I will skip this month.

I received MF earlier this year. I absolutely love the scent. I presented it to the LOTH and it got instant approval - without even using it!
