SOS: September 2025

Betakh! (Of course!)

I have quite a few antique soaps such as:

Shavallo (from the Uk)
Irisch Moos (from Germany)
Colgate (from either Sweden or Denmark)
Springreiter (from Germany)
Dalli Werke (from Germany)
Gibbs (from France)

And a couple of creams:

Kaloderma (from Germany)
Cerrus (from Germany)

Not to mention some vintage aftershaves from Russia!

All wonderful stuff that I wish was still available!

Thanks Akhi!

It came as a big shock to me that the Irisch Moos stick was discontinued because first the company who was making it was taken over by Maurer & Wirtz who’s the manufacturer of Tabac and honestly this stuff was almost exactly the same. Just the scent is different. A couple of the other soaps pop up every so often on E Bay but at meshiggeneh (crazy) prices.

Friday's Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Proraso White Shave Soap
Jayaruh #4 High Mountain Badger
Christy Safety Razor
Personna Injector Blade
CWR
Humphrey's Witch Hazel
Duru Cologne

The Proraso White Shave Soap was face-lathered well with the Jayaruh #4 High Mountain Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Christy Safety Razor and the Personna Injector Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Humphrey's Witch Hazel and Duru Cologne. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

 

Frankenrazor : Handle vintage Pal head DLC Yaqui with cap vintage made in Germany = Excellent mild razor

Friday morning:

Cool shower
Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Super Speed/Crystal day 9
Bundubeard Impi SS
Bundubeard Boomslang 1 ASB
Mennen Skin Bracer AS Splash

These Crystal blades are definitely fantastic - they’re so sharp and smooth as well as forgiving. The Impi soap from Bundubeard is a South African treasure - it’s glycerine based with a very nice coffee/fruity scent, its lather explodes off my brush, it’s so thick, rich with excellent blade glide, it’s mildly but pleasantly mentholated, and it leaves a really comfortable postshave feeling. The Boomslang 1 balm is extremely moisturizing, just a SMALL amount is needed, it’s also slightly cooling, and the scent pairs well with the Skin Bracer aftershave. Another three pass beauty of a BBS shave that was lots of fun!

Wishing you all a great weekend - be well and stay safe!
