Hey folks, nubie here.
Been wetshaving on and off for many years. Never much of an equipment collector but currently have a few items including Merkur and Jagger razors, a nice, tight boar brush and a Simsons Duke (and a brush I found in the back of the linen closet last year thats so old I have no idea what it is). We keep a city place in Murray Hill so Im spoiled by the Pasteur Pharmacy.
Gotta say this board is greateveryones polite and informativeand the layout here is perfect for a newcomer finding his way around and lurking. Kudos to all.
3 things I picked up from you guys already.
1. Proraso: Absolutely amazing! In addition to that clean feel and smell its medicinal. Ive suffered from winter dryness/redness on the sides and bridge of my nose for 20 years and settled on Eucerin-like creams to help. No more! Proraso, post-shave, cleared up the soreness from Day 1 and works way better than anything else Ive tried.
2. Personna Meds: Nice blades guys. Picked up a hundred. Very sharp but very smooth. How they do that ?
3. Hanging out on boards like this makes you buy stuff you dont need! Youd be amazed what its done for my cigar stash, and collections of guitars and watches. The misses is always very impressed with my addictions
