    Ya LADIES AND GENTLEMEN-

    Welcome to the 3rd edition of the 2020 Stoylin Tony Awards! I said earlier this year that the nomination decisions are becoming harder and I wasn't kidding. But that's the fun of it. Anyway, without further a do.......the nominees for Edition 3 are:

    Shave Soap-Naked And Smooth
    Brush-Synthetic, 24 x 51

    Congrats, products!!!!!! Just to close this makes a return nomination for Naked&Smooth(the soap got one last year). And this is the second brush to get a nomination. All right.....see you Labor Day!!!

    Great job again Paul! I have the nominated brush and love it. I do not have the soap but do have the Unscented with Beeswax which is probably the same soap as Naked And Smooth but with Beeswax and love it when I want an unscented soap.

    I think you're right about the beeswax soap. And thank you(about the Tonys). That N&S would be a great compliment for my Agadir A.S.(would "bring out" the Oud scent more). JUst thinking here...thinking...thinking.

    John, I think I pushed too hard with the Frost Drops-came out a bit thick (not unlike shaving cream)!. I put some in the Burma Shave Soap, and...yes....even in the Stoylin Eskimo Tuxedo.

    I think you are supposed to add the drops right before you shave. Perhaps while your loading your brush

    Andrew, you're right. It may have been a waste to put them in without using the soap right away. I'll be ready for the plan tomorrow(and in future Frost Drop shaves).

    I've decided I am "not above" trying the recently received MenthaScrub bath soap as just that-in my shower as a pre-shave(course as a bodywash too). Time to tae advantage of staying as cool as possible. Course if I change my mind, it will always be at my sink, for hand-washing. I won't mind having cold hands at each wash, for a couple weeks. :).

    I used my Blood on Steel soap and aftershave this morning for the first time. I wish I could describe scents well but I can't - I'll leave that to Andrew who is a master at it. All I can say is that it is great stuff. I just love that Stirling lather,.

    John, let's see if I can help. Does it have a similar scent to, say, a BLOODy Mary drink?(I wouldn't know muhself, never had one...I just thought the twi Bloods might be the same).

    I have a feeling I might make another play for Frost Drops before the summer's out. 3 vials may not be enough.

    John, let me come at it from another angle. The Central Texas Soaps Weekend Rodeo(soap&A.S.)I plan to buy before the fall&winter hits,is described the following way:"Warm tanned leather. Simple And Unapologetic. " That's what you need to do....get products that have only one scent. (Teasing, lol).
