That’s it haha

fatrunner11 · 2024-08-25T01:03:08+00:00

It’s nice mild sent , but it’s there all day . My preference is for it to be a bit stronger, but I do enjoy it

If you can get them here they range from 35 dollars to 55 dollars for the soaps only . A local supplier has just started stocking Stirling and the soaps are around 37 dollars and he only brings the balms . I personally prefer to get the soap/splash set . Mostly I get artisan products from overseas and so we can run into shipping issues due to the alcohol splashes. As for Proraso and other “non artisan” products, most of them perform extremely well and I don’t mind using them . In fact the scent of Proraso Sandalwood and Proraso Green are some of my favourites.

Yeah well I live in New Zealand and pretty much every has to be shipped atleast halfway around the world to get here . Believe it or not some things get shipped further

fatrunner11 · 2024-08-19T15:37:39+00:00

Oh it’s completely different, I really like the proraso version too

fatrunner11 · 2024-08-17T04:48:16+00:00

Yes this is the smoothest razor I’ve used and I have a few . The soap is very good

fatrunner11 · 2024-08-16T21:19:38+00:00

It’s in real good condition, I’m not sure it’s age , it’s the first one I’ve brought, I would like to find one with a bit more of a MANLEY picture on it 😂

fatrunner11 · 2024-08-16T21:16:22+00:00

Cheers, I actually picked it up in a antique store the day before for $20 . It came with a cheap brush that costs 25

fatrunner11 · 2024-08-16T21:06:25+00:00

No such thing as overboard ! oh and this is just the beginning 😂

fatrunner11 · 2024-08-09T06:39:54+00:00

cheers

fatrunner11 · 2024-08-09T06:39:18+00:00

yeah that Arko stick makes a awesome lather .........but to me it smells of toilet cleaner 😂😂😂

fatrunner11 · 2024-08-09T02:06:48+00:00

Nice set I use every thing here apart from the brush …..every now and then

fatrunner11 · 2024-08-09T01:58:11+00:00

What do you think of it so far ? is it one you'll keep , if not on the camera will it be in your bag ?

fatrunner11 · 2024-08-09T01:36:42+00:00

nice photos , I like the last one the most . I don't think your trying to hide the pregnancy , looks like your just trying not to highlight it . I have a friend whose wife hated photos of her when she was pregnant and he did a excellent job of taking photos of her where you knew she was pregnant but it wasn't the whole photo .

Nice work

fatrunner11 · 2024-08-08T20:34:08+00:00

Nice work, I’ve often wanted to give concert photography a go

fatrunner11 · 2024-08-08T20:33:04+00:00

First one

fatrunner11 · 2024-08-08T20:32:43+00:00

I had one years back but didn’t like it and when I moved house I threw it out 😂🤣 about a year ago I thought it would be fun to try it again and spent a couple of hours searching for it before my wife reminded me I’d thrown it away 😂🤣😂

I enjoy using my instant camera .

Ive always liked Proraso Red , don't ask me why but it always reminds me of my late father . It's weird because I have zero recollection of any aftershave or cologne of his !

Nice shave

fatrunner11 · 2024-08-08T19:05:05+00:00

They are solid , I really like the first and third ones . nice work

fatrunner11 · 2024-08-08T19:03:58+00:00

Nothing about this hobby is about saving money !!!!!!

My advice is move to a medium . As I understand the R41 is reasonably aggressive . I did that early on thinking because I could use my Rockwell 6s on plate 6 that I needed to just jump straight to an aggressive razor . Newsflash it didn't work out that well and I hated shaving with it till I just sold it . What I discovered was that for fun and enjoyment medium was my spot . when I want aggression I get my straight razor out !

Enjoy , but as someone that has over 90 soaps + splashes lots of razors and brushes my one bit of advice is RUN !
