A loose (probably excited, looking forward with great anticipation and relish) reference to the splendid Taylors Almond Shaving Cream I am sure, as Taylors only makes sandalwood and lavender shaving soaps.:w00t:

Wanna get jealous? One of my first shaving soaps was a bowl of DR Harris.... in ROSE. Cool eh? It was smashing good stuff... wish I saved it and sold it to one of you SCAD fellas for a fortune!
 
Here's the beauty!

Good show, Rik!! You'll be busy for a while trying all that stuff.
 
Thanks. I believe I finally have a well stocked den. The only problem now is there's so much to choose from. Such a decisions, decisions. :biggrin:

I had my soap/cream drawer open this morning, and my 6 year old came in, looked in it and said, "Is all that shaving stuff??" with a perplexed look.:wink:
 
Scotto,

Either you have a most understanding bride, or, you are a master at hiding things!

You keep this up, and you'll be using different products for the two different sides of your face!

The key is to attribute the *AD's to a mid-life crisis. Then SWMBO compares your acquisitions to what else you could be doing, and sees it as a harmless vice. :biggrin: :wink:

Hello All,

Again, a modest score this week. Nothing to compare to Rik's treasure chest!

For me, left to right, St Charles Shower Gel (New Spice), St Charles Shampoo (New Spice), L'Occitane Cade Hair Gel, C-M Patchouli talc and C-M Sandalwood Shower Gel.

The St Charles products work great and have the signature New Spice scent. Perfect in the shower before a shave with New Spice shave soap or at the end of the day in the evening.

The Cade hair gel holds very well, without stiffness and is scented subtley with the Cade juniper fragrance. No braille on this tube.

Couldn't pass up a tin of patchouli talc at the C-M two day sale. And a bottle of Sandalwood shower gel. I think the C-M sandalwood fragrance is very nice. I also have the C-M sandalwood shampoo, body lotion and talc.

Cheers,

Richard

What's wrong with this picture? Besides the fact that this stuff isn't at my house, absolutely nothing! Jerry, you'll love that HD. Mine may wind up being the only DE that I keep, period. Oh, is that your reflection in the atomizer?
