    Another stunning photo, Clint. You just keep peeling them off the deck.

    Great pic again, Jim. You've probably already commented on it, but what do you think of the Glastonbury?

    Thanks Doug. It's a little floppy, but I like it.

    Great photo, Doug. What don't you like about the Formula C, or is it Myrsol AS in general?

    Thank you Jason. The 30DC brush is very photogenic and makes the pictures much easier to capture.

    There are many Myrsol products that I really like. I find the Formula C smells more like medicine. My face doesn't feel refreshed at all.

    Day 13 of the NEW focus, 3rd with a Lord. First day with this soap. It is different than my other TFS soap- it is firmer and less 'croapy' than my other and doesn't contain lanolin like the Mastro Miche. Whipped up a nice lather. Andrew, @Linuxguile, you are right about the cinnamon- it and citrus are the dominant scents, but I also pick up some other spices as well. Nutmeg? Clove? Who knows, I'm definitely not a scent aficionado.
    Nice 3 pass near BBS with again focussing on skin stretching upward and opening my mouth to change the angle on my jawline. The Spice paired very nicely with this soap.
    Have a great day all!

    It looks so unique with that wide flattop in there. Very cool.

    The way you take pictures, Clint, a Mach 3, a can of Foamy and a plastic Omega travel brush would look world class.

    Thanks for the description. I figured I would wait to use this soap to the fall/winter.

    I'm thinking the same thing, but I didn't have the patience to put a new soap away for 4 months without trying it once!

    Thank you, Jason!

    I really like Glastonbury. It is a mutton tallow formula, and Stirling mutton tallow soaps are among my favorites. The scent is woodsy and grassy, with a bit of sweetness in the background. The last two Stirling soaps I have ordered have been Glastonbury and Sandalwood, and these may be now my favorite two Stirling scents. Previously, I would have said Ben Franklin, but now I am not so sure. Another kicker for the Glastonbury was the comment I got from my wife this morning. If I new I would get that reaction all the time, I would probably use Glastonbury only from now on.

    Jason, the brush is stunning with the TGN Boar knot. After you get a feel for the TGN boar knot can you let us know what you think? I have always been curious about them.

    I've had it for several months now and it is well broken it. It performs okay, but after using it, I do wish it had more loft. It is only set at 11mm, so I believe it just needed to be made with longer hairs.
    It is also a true 'bulb' which gives it a little different look from a lot of boars.
