Gave myself a Father's Day gift of the Supply products and glad I did. The SE Max is a fine razor for me, smooth/comfortable/effective/easy to use. The Black Label blades are terrific. The shave cream is fabulous, gives a luscious yogurt like lather that is protective as heck. The strength of the scent could be better but it might be my covid wrecked nose. Never have recovered my full sense of smell after 2 bouts of that nasty virus. At any rate, a quick easy wonderful shave was had and my face is happy. Now go enjoy your day folks.

Greetings,

(Face & Head Shave)

A relaxing early morning Turkish themed face & head shave.

As always the humble Derby shave stick provide a slick protective lather in a short space of time.

I've mentioned many times in my postings that I take into consideration why some people have a love/hate opinions on the scent of Arko & derby shave sticks, even though both are great performing soaps some people can't/won't shave with them purely because of their scent, to my nose both soaps have a 'Clean scent' which I don't have any issues with besides that, once I've done my final cold water rinse I find the scent has virtually disappeared. I also count myself very fortunate to have a skin type that hasn't had a adverse-reaction to any of the shaving soaps and creams that I've used to date.

Another close comfortable acceptable face & head shave with no errors to report.

Finishing the shave off with a generous splash of Gummy Traditional Turkish Lavender Cologne.

My face & precious swede are feeling smooth and smelling divine.

Stay safe, and enjoy your day ladies & gentlemen.

 

Thanks for your post. I've used ARKO and DERBY soap sticks both. I've used up a couple, but I have an unopened ARKO. I've read about issues with the scent of ARKO. I don't have any issues with either of them. They perform well for me.

Thanks for your post. I've read about the GOAT. If you're familiar with Merkur's 34C, can you compare them? It's supposed to be inspired by it.
