Was using Stirling before Paul Turner led me to this thread. Because of this thread I've upped my usage of Stirling. And, my use of the menthol soaps is strictly because of this thread.
I remember when in the early eighties it was a Trac-II,boar brush, and Vintage Williams. It did get boring. I'ed rotate in Col. Conk, or Barbasol SC to keep things interesting. Even made a good lather with Dove bar soap. Used what you could find at the local store, no internet. Clayton Sent from my LG-K450 using Tapatalk
I have been one of their customers since the Spring of 2013. This thread really drew me back in to using Stirling 90% of the time. Clayton Sent from my LG-K450 using Tapatalk
yuh LADIES AND GENTLEMEN: At this date, we've reached the now famous "2 Week Warning" for the next edition of the 2020 Stoylin Tony Awards nominations. Course a fortnight goes by real fast in here. It shall be noted that the next nomination date will be at the beginning of "Stoylin September", which makes this particular choice date all the more fun. Not to mention special, which I just did lol. Let's all have a good 2 weeks-Labor Day is right around the corner!
I might have purchased a Stoylin prior to the ground breaking of this thread. Hard to remember. I think @Yehuda D talked me into my first one(Barbershop shave soap), then I saw this begin.

Yuh LADIES AND GENTLEMEN: It has been brought to my attention-by me, lol-that I should give more respect to the "Runner-Up" on Stoylin Tony Awards Finals Day. As we recall, I decided on a Runner-up" as well as the Winner, in last year's Finals Day.(Course that was the first Tony). Therefore, as of the next Finals Day, I will commit to purchasing the Runner-up at some point of next year, whereas the Winner will be purchased immediately. Thank you-and be happy with your Stoylins, current&future .

I know this general subject has been touched upon before, but the latest review of Xecutive Man Shave Soap(by "CP") ...well, I'll just say-is not nice. He loves the soap, but frankly I am quite disturbed by the way he says so. Well....we do have freedom of speech, I suppose. :-(.
John, how did you hear about Stoylin before the thread? Course it was the same with me, but I'm interested as to what got you on the "Stoylin Train"?
It was a positive review but way over the top. Grow up people. Anyways I reported it as being inappropriate. Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk
I saw it used and reviewed on a couple of shave You Tube videos (Nick Shaves and Ruds Shave) Both Nick and Ruds were very complimentary of Stirling Soaps and After Shaves. Both advised that Stoylin Soaps and A/S were the best you could get for the money. So I bought a couple (Executive Man and Unscented with Beeswax) and IMO both Nick and Ruds were right on. I certainly haven't tried all of the various product that is out there but I have tried quite afew and for my money, Stoylin is the best for anything even close to the price, not to mention their fabulous service. That and of course this thread are why I'm such a big Stoylin fan.
Call me crazy, but I was perusing the Stirling site and saw that Glastonbury is back and...well, I am going to try it for a THIRD time.
