SoS: Aug. 24-30 2009

Please explain--I don't understand......

 

Thursday...my travel kit for this trip:

Simpson PJ2 Super
D.R. Harris Almond soap
Gillette Trac II
Thayer's Rose Witch Hazel w/ alcohol
Clinique Post-Shave Healer
Knize 10 EdT

 

They are part of the European Community but their products are unavailable in other countries of the EU,..... in this way it's impossible to try the excellent bulgarian SC in Spain

 

Bulgarian shaving stuff is extremely popular not only in Bulgaria, but also all over eastern Europe, as well as in Russia, Ukraine, Belorus, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Armenia, and Turkey. This stuff is even becoming more and more popular in Germany, and other countries in western Europe.

 

THURSDAY

11C
Feather/Day 4
Kell's Ultra Aloe Lime
VDH Deluxe Boar
Fruit Of The Earth Aloe Gel
Pinaud Clubman After Shave

 

I hope they arrive to Spain soon

 

@du212: It was my second day with the Mühle R89 and it still needs a bit of getting in to..... The alum made me feel that!

 

Thursday: Parker 65r razor / Treet Classic blade / Kell's Original SS (Juniper&Sage) / Omega brush / M&L Florida Water Cologne

The Parker/Treet combo is extremely mild, possibly more so than a Tech. Is that even possible?

Hot Shower
NDC Gillette Tech (with Bakelite Handle)
TSD Coconut Lime Verbena
Dickinson's WH (aloefied)
Clubman AS

Strange razor this one, when I first bought it, there was something I liked about it even though it was probably the least aggressive shaver in the fleet. The more I shave with it, the more I like it. It hasn't gotten any more aggressive but it still delivers very good and very comfortable shaves. I look forward to my Gillette Tech shaves and have even thought of investing in a ball end tech.

 

Gold Barhandled Norfolk
7 O'clock Sharp Edge
Knotty Badger Silvertip
Wars cream
Wesley and Scott Lime

Finished my shave and then noticed a small weeper under my chin. That doesn't seem right, I never get weepers with these razors... Then I started counting, Day 12 on that blade.

 

Trumpers razor
SMF II brush
Trumpers Almond shave cream
DR Harris Milk
Trumpers GFT EDT

 

Dubl Duck Special

Bulgaria does a big export business with the other Balkan countries, as well as with Russia, and other countries in the ex-Soviet Union. The tubes are written in 3 languages--Bulgarian, which I'm starting to learn, as well as Russian, which I speak, and English.

 

12 days on a yellow? I can't do it. They deteorate too fast for me. I count myself lucky with 3 days on them. Its too bad, they are excellent on day 1.

 

Krasimir, it is equally my pleasure! Wait til you try Williams, P160, and the other German cream that I'm sending you!
