    I know most of you are really into a variety of scents, but if you want to give your skin a break from all those oils, "Naked and Smooth" is an extraordinary soap. It has a very light, fresh, natural soap scent and the wonderful performance we've come to appreciate from Stirling.

    I tried some Stirling soap just recently because I acquired some through a trade. I got the Island Man, South Padre Island, Peach and a sample size Scots Pine Sheep. The soap performs really really well so I'm a Stirling customer for life. The scents on the other hand are not good to me. If I could I would get rid of them but haven't found anyone who wants them. The upside is my AS usually destroys the scent anyway so not that big of a deal.

    I like what I've read about that one, as an unscented Stirling.

    I used Frozen Tundra this morning and got not only a great shave but also a HELL of a freezing sensation. That soap is COLD!

    No, no, not at all. The scent is lovely.

    Ah mais oui, it's a rich lemony scent backed by strong menthol.

    Wow. When you consider how big their catalog is, and fast fast they get orders shipped, it helps make you realize how hard they must really be working.

    Watching that video was pretty eye opening. Really makes you appreciate all the hard work and dedication that goes into making these products. I always thought they were a big company. Very inspiring.

    One message I got out of that was if you order something that is low on the best-seller list, it'll take a little longer to get out. Did I understand that correctly?

    That's how I understood it. He mentions that he doesn't have the space to stock the non best sellers.

    Aftershave can be made up on the spot. It's the soaps that take time as they have to cure for a while before they are ready.

    Another way to look at it is if it's not a best seller it'll be fresh. I wonder if it has an effect on shipping time.

    Thanks Chris, good to know. Is there a list of his bestsellers somewhere on his website?
