    I knew I'd love that Glacial balm but it totally freaked me out. I never thought I'd love it this much. My mistake was to only get one.

    I have been using a Rosemary Mint shampoo bar on all my showers at home, since Black Friday. I keep my hair buzzed, so I can’t really comment on the hair care aspect, but I do know for sure that it is good for my scalp. Also not sure if that is a result of the soap formula or the rosemary, but I can say for sure that I will be keeping it around.

    I had a head like a tukhis this morning and used another soap which was good but not like the Sharp Dressed Man. My shave was pretty good but the skincare lacked a little. Nothing beats Stirling!

    For my Menthol Monday shave tomorrow it'll be Glacial Black Cherry followed by the Glacial Unscented balm.

    I bought one on Black Friday as well. Do you think it has some type of cooling agent?

    I had a sample of the Rosemary Mint shave soap a few years ago and it was fairly cooling. It lathered well, BUT: it seemed to be a bit irritating to me. This is the one and only Stirling soap I ever encountered this from.

    Did you report this to the Doc?

    No, it's such a minor detail. Why bother the gentleman with such worthless trivia like that? In Yiddish we call things like that "babeh mayntses" which means nonsense.

    It is the mint. Great stuff. I like it for bath soap better than the mentholated, because I tend to have drier skin. The mentholated bars kill me. The mint is a great cool, without being so drying.

    The wife thinks I'm a nutcase because even though it's been very cold I'm using a Glacial Lemon Chill bath soap. It's not only the strong menthol I enjoy, the scent is so nice and it allows me to easily skip the moisturizer. As soon as I get some extra cash I'm going to place an order for some more goodies. One item I have my eye on is the Eucalyptus Mint shave soap and the other is the bath soap.

    Absolutely love stirling, helps that my wife loves the soap and lip balms as well.

    Out of curiosity, why do people here say stoylin? Never seen that on any other board

    I think it's just me who says that....Just giving it a silly name.. But I love the products I've bought from them, and plan to buy more later on.

    Ah gotcha wasn’t sure if there was some kind of backstory unique to this board. Thanks!

    I used to do that in AOL Chatrooms too..make up goofy names for places, things, and members. Only a tiny handful didn't like them. Anyway, welcome to TSD :).

    @Paul Turner IS a unique backstory! I enjoy his quirks, and what he brings to the table here.

    Good to have you around. Some diehards here, and some occasional..... We mostly talk all Stirling all the time, but it is pretty much an in-hijackable thread. Nobody is gonna get ruffled if you ask a question about something else, or chat about family.

    Appreciate that, I only just discovered stirling a couple of months ago and have already filled up a lot of space in my bathroom with their products.
