Neat portrait of a Myrsol shave. How well did the cream lather? I have read it takes awhile to determine the ratio of product to water.

The cream was great, really great. Personally I didn't find it anymore difficult to use than any other soap or cream, start with very little water and add a few drops as needed. I did find that bowl lathering worked slightly better than face lathering. Well worth a try and it's not that expensive if you don't like it.

Sweet layout. How was the Stirling Spice?

Thanks, Ron. Stirling Spice has been one of my favorites since I first tried it about four or five years ago. Stirling's performance has always been top-notch for me, and I really like their take on the Shulton Old Spice scent -- very warm and inviting. Absolutely superb stuff.
