Gentlemen, I am out. I've been experiencing some dry skin lately and decided to get a couple of balms to see what suits me. One wouldn't have put me out, but two is one too many. See you next month!

Great shave today. Wanted to try the FOCS again as I haven’t used it since I received my Karve for Christmas! Also this was the best lather I’ve had with this brush to date. I’ve been breaking in this brush and it keeps getting better! Tried the @Marco method today for the first time. I was thoroughly impressed! Thank you for sharing that technique with us!View attachment 1226112
I spent the night fighting with the devil over at the Paladin site, where in the latest drop there were two brushes I've long sought- 26mm El Dorados in turquoise and in jade. I made it to sunrise without buying one but the obsession is strong. I just saw in another thread that the turquoise one sold but the jade, the one I REALLY want, is still there. I hope it sells soon, cuz I'm feeling weak.
This, my friends, is why I shouldn't visit any vendor's site during a restraint.
I unsubscribed from them all months ago. But a tweet from Paladin got through, and that's all it took. They don't release brushes (nor do they tweet) very often, so I hadn't muted them on the twitter machine.Atta boy, making it sunrise is the hardest part! You got this.
I have learned very quickly in my first restraint, unsubscribe to vendor emails and don’t visit sites. I find it hard enough seeing all the nice gear you guys have, I just keep telling myself when I see something nice that it’s sold out and I shouldn’t look because then I’ll be disappointed. I’d rather be jealous then disappointed haha
The jade brush is sold, but I'm not the buyer, and I'm still in the restraint.I spent the night fighting with the devil over at the Paladin site, where in the latest drop there were two brushes I've long sought- 26mm El Dorados in turquoise and in jade.
