Mom Brought Some Wet Shaving stuff from Pakistan

I am Happy she brought me shaving stuff although I have plenty of stuff already. I really like the Admiral Shaving cream and also Touch Me one that you can also buy from Paki Grocery stores here in USA. I am just happy she thought about me miles away.

That was very sweet of your mother to think of you and bring you that stuff back. That Treet Starline looks like an exact clone of the Gillette Sterling. We have a fairly large Pakistani community here in the Chicago area and I am always amazed at how much traditional shaving supplies they keep in stock.
 
Congrats and moms truly are fantastic, but so are dads! Those are the individuals who get us started with shaving!
 
Oh so you're a Paki as well, your mom visiting Pakiland and all. Should've asked her to get you some of those Paki blades, those Pakis also make a lot of other Paki shave creams as well, as well as Paki aftershaves and, last but not least, Paki straights. pretty innovative those Pakis, huh?
 
touch me and admiral are very rare in the u.s....the pakistani stores in my area do not carry them...mom gave you a nice stash !
 
Great selection! Its nice that your mom thought of these things to add to your wet-shaving hobby.

What is that in the Cigar brand? Spray deodorant? I had a bottle of Cigar EdC gifted to me many years ago, and I loved the stuff. I'm not sure who makes it, but I've never seen it anywhere since except in the over-priced perfume kiosks at the mall, where the bloated price puts it out of reach.

Denim Aftershave is a great non-expensive product IMO. Mine went down too quickly!
 
my cousin will be bringing the Treet Platinum blades for me so I hope I get them this weekend!!! I am a happy camper lol
 
The Treet Starline is a ***, sorry to say. At least mine was. Crooked safety bar and blade exposure was off. The doors broke too. But the black plastic Treet razor you have there is fantastic....the same as a Wilkinson Classic DE.

The other stuff looks really cool though. Love the label on that "Cigar" thing.
 
You can buy Cigar by Remy Latour from ebay and also Marshalls near my house had one. I love this fragrance, also Cuba Red is very similar in smell. I love tobacco flavored scents and scents from the 80s like lomani, Drakkar and so on. I am only 27 but I do not like the citrusy and fruity manly smells of this era

Very nice and interesting! I might be going to Pakistan this fall for the first time since getting into this hobby. Definitely looking forward to picking up some stuff for dirt cheap!
 
As-Salamu Alaykum brothers. When I first got into shaving I had stopped into a local picked up some blades and creams. I need to return, as they also had a Halal butcher shop attached that had these goat sausages with onion, herbs, spices...forgot what they are called, but so good.

Any recommendations besides the Adrimal and Touch Me? They also carried many products from India, including the full range of Shutton Old Spice Creams.
 
Hey Dan, I think the indian stuff is pretty good as well, I think their main shaving cream is Godrej, There are many different brands that several companies make. Over here is the USA some of these products have a higher price so if you want a good shaving cream go to rite aid and get Real Shaving Co shaving cream, u won't be disappointed.
