Sandalwood essential oil, happily I get this through my sister who works with them. An Ikon OSS razor unused (and yeah I did suggest he sell it but he can't be bothered) which a mate is sending me as it was an unwanted present, he shaves with a straight razor only and figures the newbie could do with some variety.....a badger brush for son, after shave balm for son , couple of arko sticks also for son. Many little parcels
I was reading reviews on Amazon about different Sandalwood oils and all of them had several bad reviews. So now I dont know what brand to order. Any recommendations would be well appreciated. I was going to go with P & J or NOW brand
Here are some of my newest acquisitions that I have not yet received. Looking forward to these Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Haha .that's actually pretty fun. I do have storage bins under my bed. When I buy a new soap, aftershave, brush or razor I have to take one off the showroom floor, such real world problems.
I’ll ask her for a supplier recommendation, won't get to chat to her for a week or so. I don't know where she sources as she is in the trade so gets it from places we can't and I piggy back off that. She'll know the good ones though as works with fragrances as a professional. Will DM you once I talk to her.
I saw this interesting brush for a while, so finally made an offer and was accepted by the seller. It a German made Bullardo brush ... should clean up nicely. I'll probably drop in a finest badger knot and try to save the decal but may need a new one made.
I was watching that one also and was wondering about making new decals for it. The black lines could be painted on, or black vynil tape or wrap could be used, usually pretty durable. But I needed to get a couple of other items so I decided not to try for it.
I desperately need help. I have ... MBRAD; Masochistic Brush Restoration Acquisition Disorder It's where you feel the need to find the most jacked up brush you can find to restore. Well even ugly brushes need loving. BTW it's a Rubberset.
I broke the cheap pair scissors (made in China) in my kitchen about 2-3 weeks ago, so picked up some vintage Wiss Kitchen shears. They're pre-1940's due to they say PAT APPD. FOR and they don't have the screw driver. I'll clean them up and repaint the handles yellow (I like yellow).
Wish I would have seen this one before my previous post, so my apologies. I’m waiting on some sample size Stirling Shave Soaps. Ordered a Tea Tree, Orange Chill and Glacial Lemon Chill. Can’t wait to try them out when they arrive. These will be my first true Shave soaps as all I’ve used is Proraso’s croap. I’m excited Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
