1. What are the more unique / hard to come by / 'cool' creams, soaps, aftershave in your arsenal?
2. Very brief description of why.
3. We might want it too! where'd ya get it?!

I think one of the more underrated aftershave balms is made by Kiehl's. It is their Ultimate ASB. www.kiehls.com

Dalan D'Men shaving cream. Made in Turkey. Smells reminiscent of fruit strip gum. It's a pretty nice performer, and dirt cheap ($2.99 per tube). I think I am one of the few people to ever use it on this board, as it is not heavily reviewed.

You can purchase it here:

You can buy that cream from Shavabuck as well for $6.00 per tube.

Their a US vendor, and sell both the regular, and menthol varieties.

Lumene AS Balm --no longer available. Terrific product, Alcohol free, good skin care, took care of razor burn. Sad to see it go.

WOOO lets keep it comming!


At present, I'd have to say I really like the Wesley and Scott Clove and Peppermint SC (it was at Shavingessentials for around $12 per, but I haven't seen it since the redesign)...the sent was AWESOME and the lather was oh so slick. sigh.

La Toja soap in the bowl. From what I understand it is only available via mail order from La Toja and only in Spain, luckily I have a friend with a Spanish girlfriend. I think I may have Blue Spanish Floid on the way from him as well.

Cheers,
David

Recently picked up some Tabula Rasa Shave cream

Kinda hard to come by state-side and disappears quickly when it's available. Picked it up at Lee's Safety Razors.
