    Hard to believe the original brown Listerine was originally introduced as an aftershave. It works. Leaves a sticky residue and smells bad, FYI.

    Probably not the same formulation.

    I was wrong, it was originally introduced as an antiseptic for doctors and dentists.

    And no, the original hasn't been reformulated.

    I use a old spice rack for holding my ever growing # of brushes and also these Guitar wall hangers that are adjustable and very happy with the Guitar wall hangers have worked out even better than I thought possible.

    @Ron R super idea about the guitar hangers and they are padded and 2 of each in there. Very nice.

    A wire hanger was bent into the necessary shapes to hold a brush & razor. They were then inserted/glued into a block of wood.

    Nothing too fancy- just empty Altoid Arctic tins for blade disposal. I like the mints , so we always have the containers and the lids stay closed securely.

    Works great with a small slot cut in it and a bead of silicone around the inner edge to keep it closed. When filled drop in recyclables safely.

    @Enrico I haven’t found that necessary. The lid from that tin stays closed quite securely. So I just open it, drop in a blade & reclose it.

    Why take them to the doc's office when you can flip it into your own trash?
