    Two new soaps from Grooming Dept. One of the top five if not 3 vegan soap makers I have tried so far.

    Scent Notes: Petitgrain, Lime, Litsea Cubeba, Lavender, Benzoin, Oakmoss, Patchouli

    Lime is bold here, it’s a fresh assertive lime The Petitgrain takes off some of the lime’s edge and adds a green woody note. One could almost feel like touching the twigs and leaves of an orange tree.

    Bonum Mane is a refreshing blend of Lemongrass, Lavender, Mandarin, Geranium, Ylang Ylang, Juniper Berry, Patchouli Essential Oils and a hint of clean musk.

    Just when I got rid of all my inventory from the Daytona fund raiser.. I was asked if I had any slims, fatboys etc.. lol that's all that was needed for me to start a buying binge! Again most are not mine, I think 4 of those are mine.

    Just received an email from Derek of WildWestBrushworks that my two custom brushes are ready to be shipped. Both are 26mm x 17mm deep. Red one will have a Romera Manchurian and the blue one will have a Tuxedo or Romera overstuffed Silvertip.

    Thank you. The first attempt he tried with this design didn't take or come out right but 2nd time was a charm.

    All from China I think. Not that there is anything wrong with that. All the good Badger fur comes from there, so why not the synths. I know the one you set in the White Queen works well and feels good, too.

    You may be correct there. Although I can get them fro Maggards in about three days compared to three to four weeks from China.

    I think @gorgo2 located the correct color red finger nail polish to do touch-ups on Red Tips. Family Tree Dollar General Store! Umm, no that's not it.
    Try it with a Feather Hi-Stainless, but don't quite lock the knob all the way down. It leaves the blade just right for maximum aggression.

    Thanks, I wouldn't have thought of nail polish, but that sounds like a great idea. I keep forgetting you can adjust the aggression through tension on the knob. Do you know the thread he spoke of the shade or maybe I'll just eyeball it. I was a little bummed to see it was missing the caps, but then I thought "at least it's both and that makes it unique (like me). :D I thought about replacing the caps if I like how it shaves, but the more I think about, I may leave them off like my missing hair.:happy097:

    The closest you can get to the original red tip color ( according to razor emporium ) is a spray paint by Rustoleum called Satin Closet Wine. You can find it at Home Depot

    Nail polish is a good alternative, it is long lasting. But what I like about the spray, you can bake it on in your oven or toaster oven.
