  2. Funny, Joseph, I was just thinking the same thing. Clint turned in to an Israeli Ambassador to TSD clone(for a day, anyway). Course who am I to say that? The first time I tried a Stoylin Glacial soap, I reacted like this:




    OOOOOOONOOOOO

  4. Making an artisan soap product with an offensive name is a lovely way to do businesss.

  5. I even added menthol to my Ogallala Bay Rum Cologne. :Animatedfrozensmily:

    Happy Friday!!!!! My face is frozen. :Animatedfrozensmily: The soap has a good chill but the Ogallala Bay Rum Cologne with my menthol added is much colder than the Stirling Glacial I was just using. By decanting part of the Ogallala and then adding the menthol liquid it actually improved the scent for me. Swati and I are both working from our home office and the cologne has her approval so it is a win for sure. Take care and have a great day. ​

    Workin' the ETHOS like there's no
    tomorrow.
    Somehow, it defies logic. There is a hole at the bottom of my bowl, but it's not getting any bigger.
    Otherwise, a magnificent shave.

    Got my load on and reached for the DX.

    Happy Saturday Everyone!! I have a feeling this one will be another quick 3017 challenge. I transferred the soap to a shave bowl. Even though it was labeled as having 170 grams of soap the net weight of the soap in the bowl was only 140 grams. So my best guess is around 50 shaves will have this one done. Take care and have a great day everyone. ​
  15. Fast 'n Loose---here comes Clint!

  17. Yes, not content with trying glacial products, the gentleman now moves to bowls to put them in.

  18. The only way to go.

    I put the glacial soap in a bowl as well. Now I but all shave soaps in a bowl.
